You can't say anything but you're all in until you are actually out. If you have any thought of staying you have to appear to be all in.
Harris 2024 election thread

Nice word salad, Kamala.
Is reading hard? That's pretty straight forward, Trump
It's only hard when you make it hard...
That's what he said...
What has happened here isn’t anything like Haley. You know that. That’s someone that ran and lost after getting an irrelevant number of delegates. It’s different. You also can’t say super delegates don’t matter when you know they do and we have a recent example of how they are used to push the primary where the party wants.
Those are pretty small words but I'll try to restate it.
Think of college sports recruits. How many outwardly say they are 100% committed and then recommit days later?
In certain situations it is best to appear to be committed until you are ready to actually back out. If he was on the fence for a few days to week, as soon as he made that public he would lose ALL support and wouldn't have a chance to regain it. By continuing to state he was committed to reelection he maintained the ability to continue.
So you admit Super Delegates screwed Bernie, and you are aware that they had nothing to do with Kamala being chosen ...I'm specifically responding to your claim that Dem votes were suppressed
Or it’s that I realize money is too big a factor in who runs for president. It’s too big a factor in the primaries. It’s too big a factor in the general election. It’s too big a factor in how are elected officials vote.

If I decide to quit a job on January 14, but the day before I was working, does that make me like joe, or basically anyone who has ever changed their mind?!
That I agree with. Politics shouldn't be about money... there needs to be a complete overhaul in that.
VP vetting is getting very interesting
He also oversaw the Bin Laden raid
William McRaven, former chancellor of the University of Texas System, has reportedly been vetted as a potential Harris running mate, according to NBC News. McRaven is a retired U.S. Navy four-star admiral and foreign policy expert who advised former Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama.
McRaven, who teaches national security at the University of Texas at Austin’s Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs, did not respond to two emails seeking comment

Good thing recruits aren't, you know, attempting to run the country.
One of two things happened, he lied until lying didn't work anymore, or he really thought he was staying in until the handlers pulled the rug out from under him.
It's called an example and this is a sports message board. People do it with work all the time too.

orrrrrrr he finally realized he needed to step aside...
If you stand up before a company wide meeting on the 13th and say you are going to retire there then get called into the board and them forcing you to resign on the 14th then yes.
Saying Biden “dropped out” is more mess like saying it’s just a stutter.
Vote for Harris for any of the reasons she presents in her campaign or just cause you hate Trump. Don’t continue the lunacy by acting like this was something other than him being ran out.
So you think when a party forces a candidate out and has a special set of delegates not attached to people’s votes they are going to go against the person the party chose…..ok!!!!
No one voted for who is gonna get the nod. The DNC is suing to keep RFK off ballots. They screwed the people who voted for Bernie by making impossible for him to win. Seems like a lot of effort to dismiss a lot of votes to me but I could be wrong.

I honestly don't care why he is no longer running...forced out, changed mind, forgot what he had said previously, had a dream where an angel named BoB told him he needed to step down or he would never taste ice cream again...I don't care...I never intended to vote for joe or don, and now I will vote Kamala...not that it matters in OK...
