(I expected him to grasp his chest with an expression of pain, but that worked better, actually.) Yeah, he is getting long in the tooth, but he's not *that* bad. Second: the Dems all make a big show of panic. Joe declares that he's staying in the race come hell or high water! Third: the GOP has their convention and the Donald chooses Vance... a good call, if he's running against Joe Biden. And then: *SURPRISE* Goppers! It's the old, tried & true chess move known as: "Knee to corner of board", but we don't reset the clocks!!! This leaves the Donald stuck with Vance and Kamala still has her options. Technically, she has to choose by convention (I guess those are the rules), but, so what if she breaks the Democrats' rules? ... she's a Democrat! What'll they do? Censure her? I dunno whether they had it planned all along; however, if they didn't, they should have! ("But... but... but... what about all those poor Democrats who had their primary votes negated! Won't they lose faith in their party and the democratic process?") If those poor Democrats who didn't get their primary votes counted don't like it, they can eat my shorts... or switch parties, I suppose!
