    Warren probably needs to go pragmatic with her second pick. So either Mayor Pete or Beto, I would think. A white male whose views don't alienate the less-liberal democrats. Or maybe Cory Booker.

    I think that would be a bad play for Buttigieg, because when was the last time a VP was elected following his president? Answer, never. He's a much better candidate in 2028 than taking a VP spot if it's offered to him.

    I don't see this country electing another black president in a long while, so it would make sense for Harris or Booker to accept a VP spot. With the old farts at the top of the ticket, that might be their best shot at gaining the presidency.

    Fox came out with a poll today that had Trump losing to Biden, Bernie, and Warren and a dead heat with Harris.
    I expect a tweet storm most any time.

    What's next if Buttigieg's career if not VP?
    Cabinet?
    Mayor of SB for all eternity?
    Given how red the state is, I assume Senate or Governor in Indiana is a super long shot....

    I'd like to see Buttigieg do two or three terms in the House and then run for president.

    And I denounce myself for forgetting the unremarkable Pappy Bush.

    Every poll I saw had Clinton crushing Trump and that didn't happen. So I've become a big non-believer in polls.
