Does a possible Biden-Abrams ticket make sense for Biden or Abrams? FiveThirtyEight discusses:
Yeah. Look, right now there are three white guys who are leading candidates and a couple of others who have an outside chance to win. Any of those white guys could find Abrams to be a rather intriguing choice, for racial/gender balancing and for other reasons. A Beto/Abrams ticket could be sort of the modern equivalent of Clinton/Gore, for instance, doubling down on a young ticket of “outsiders.”.
And it can be hard to carve out your own political identity afterward. Just ask Presidents Al Gore and Hubert Humphrey. :wink:To the earlier point about why we’re having this conversation … say it was Sanders and not Biden, do you think the reactions would be similar here?I’m not convinced that the reactions are Biden-specific. Maybe there’s more salience to Biden’s VP pick because he’s old and/or will potentially take a one-term pledge.
