    It was extremely sad to see his speech to the US.

     

    Bronzed up like Trump, stumbling profusely, but the message and hope for America still there.

     

    I wonder if he is still quite ill.

    It was sad indeed. As someone that voted for him especially.

     

    Glad he made the right decision and I hope he gets a few healthy years with his family.

  2. It's been a few months aye? Time for an update! Might as well do it while I'm still around. :sherlock:

     

    Update: 

    1. @wannamaker got a hit with Barbara Rush on March 31st

    2. @tracy got a hit with Dabney Coleman on May 16th

    3. @ladyfiona got a hit with William Russell on June 3rd

    4. @markb4 + @Perhaps got a hit with Bob Newhart on July 18th.

     

    No one else moves into winning position, but we are at 8 total hits. I would advise everyone to check on their selections. Some obscure people were chosen!

    Andy Beshear (Undead In Ohio mixed the names up, Steve Beshear is Andy's father and also a former governor) won the governorship in 2019 due to the massive unpopularity of incumbent Matt Bevin and the goodwill surrounding the Beshear name thanks to his father's popular tenure. A perfect storm, to be sure, but one that took talent to seize.

     

    Then he won reelection fairly comfortably; his challenger ran heavily on transphobic culture warring in hopes it would polarize the race against a popular incumbent. All it ultimately did was cement Beshear as the adult in the room :D

    He also won reelection due to his excellent response with significant natural disasters in his tenure. An effective politician that has cross-party appeal (and he's a straight white male!). I lean towards him as VP along with others on the forum.

    That wouldn't be a very smart move for him. There is no way the current house is letting Harris nominate a VP,  never mind the implications of counting electoral votes come January 6th...

    Not really about smart though is it?

     

    He's incompetent. Why is he President?

  5. Democrats went from a 0-15% chance (if that) to a 35-50% chance of winning either the President, the Senate, or the House. Kudos!

     

    When was the last time a politician willingly gave up so much power? Hope Biden makes the right choice and resigns as well, but alas.

    Is there any way of removing a president from office if they're found to be 'not of sound mind' (then again, this could also apply to Trump too if he wins)?

    It requires the cabinet + VP....so not really!


  7. It seems like he will drop out by this weekend. Pundits (CNN, MSNBC, etc.) have been talking as if it is a foregone conclusion. Doesn't make sense to not run for re-election, but stay as a sitting President IMO. If Harris can showcase she can do the job the next few months, Democrats would be better off.

    Yep, that's exactly what I was trying to say. I maybe didn't word it too well.

    That makes more sense. I had the mindset along the lines of what @arrowsmith laid out.

    Is this where we all hold hands and sing kumbaya?

    Do you?

    Pretty certain you were telling me for about 24 months that Biden was of completely sound mind and had no visible cognitive decline. :lol: And you took it pretty personally when I suggested he was going doolally!

    Fair. I was clearly wrong. I suppose my hope for the President of the country being stable was inherently biased. Unreasonable expectations huh?

     

    You were right friend.

    That's arguably one of the reason's Trump picked him.

    The message of "I was wrong and misinformed" from Vance  is a very powerful one for his campaign team to use to their advantage.

    I usually agree with you, but that seems like a stretch.


  11. We either vote for the bible (and porn star) humping dictator or the old puppet who can't walk or speak in a straight line.

     

    What an uninspiring VP pick. Where did the unity talk go? That VP cements a scary future when Trump wins...

    it's a derogatory term in north america, akin to calling someone an "asshole". 

    Pretty sure she got that point...think it was more of, "Why is this derogatory?"

    When I see Cheney moving as fast as this, I'll believe it

     

    Hackman seems an early 2026 hit to me; Cheney has been out of the spotlight for years- must be near the end.

    Dick Cheney made a few appearances for his daughter recently.

    Keeping Hackman, Nolan, Greenspan and Redgrave would also be ideal, but based on all the surviving names and the 22 needed to stay off next year at this rate, those seem the best drops currently.

     

    Brooks and Van Dyke are getting through 2024 fine; not sure about Greenspan. Hackman looks rough but can still be fast on his feet. But with someone like Dick Cheney, it's either this year or next.

    With respect, I have a feeling when Brooks and DvD die in the next few weeks/months this will be the jinx!
