    What we are seeing is a coordinated panic pressure media campaign. Classic Democrat-Administrative State operation. Numerous of these campaigns have been launched against Trump (Access Hollywood tapes, Comey's firing/Special Counsel setup, Russian collusion, Covid shutdowns). He's one of the few that can withstand the heat. Biden will likely crack... but then again, Biden is old and stubborn and doesn't like how he's being kicked to the curb here.

    Biden is like those old, slow ass centers that gave Olajuwon fits because he too is too slow to react and as a result can't be overwhelmed by the razzle dazzel footwork of the press.

    But like Biden, I can't for the life of me think of who that center was...

    Haven't looked at the OP, but is this thread just based on "Newsmax" reporting, LOL?

    1) Of course nobody wants to be on the Harris ticket. Probably not even Harris.

    2) Putting Kelly, Beshear, or Cooper on there would be a terrible mistake for multiple reasons. If they somehow win, you lose a very important toss-up seat, and if they get destroyed you'll be endangering those promising candidate's futures.

    I want Biden to stay in and fight as long as he could. It should not be hard because everyday is ground hog day to him.

    Chambers was a power forward, never was a center. Never forget that highlight reels when he flew over Mark Jackson on the way to the rim. Jackson tasted Chambers’ nuts on that dunk.

    If you were thinking ahead, you'd want both out. It's a prisoners dilemma. Both should exit or neither.

    Mark Eaton but not because of age. He was just so big and tall and would just hold his arms up

    Who would be a good sacrificial candidate? If the idea is that no one should want to be her VP, but someone has to be her VP, who should be chosen? I'm drawing blanks. Swing for the fences and go with Bernie? Weird choice but I can't think of anyone if it can't be someone with a promising future but they have to be relevant enough to give the ticket some credibility.

    Tom Chambers wasn’t slow when he was playing Hakeem.
