If Joe Goes

Over at the Bookworm Room There is some discussion of Dark Horses in the event Vice President Joe Biden takes a dive.  The Bookworm is going with Prof Elizabeth Warren.  It makes some sense.  Here is the key paragraph:
The only “young” gun they’ve got is Elizabeth Warren.   She’s struggling to stay above water in Massachusetts, but Democrats might see her as someone who can revive the base if she’s on the presidential ticket.   After all, when it comes to “You didn’t build that,” she and Obama are two minds with but a single thought.   Better an exciting candidate on the presidential ticket than a struggling candidate for a senate seat that’s already filled by a fairly popular, attractive RINO.
But, if this is the likely scenario, who runs against Senator Scott Brown, and how does he or she get selected?  I am going with Governor Deval Patrick if the majority in the General Court have really set their faces like flint.  The other possibility is State Senate President Therese Murray.

  1. Two avowed Communists on the same ticket.....what could be better.

    I do believe that Biden would like to jump ship....he is...after all....the consummate political survivor.....and he senses bad road ahead.
