B-Man Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 "Hillary Clinton will deliver a prime-time speech next Wednesday for the Democratic National Convention..." "Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts will join Mrs. Clinton, the 2016 nominee, on the Wednesday night program if she is not selected as Mr. Biden’s running mate, according to the officials. Former President Bill Clinton will speak as well, one of the officials said. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont and former Gov. John Kasich of Ohio, a Republican who is a harsh critic of President Trump, will deliver addresses Monday night, the officials said. Former President Barack Obama’s time slot has not been announced (or leaked), but he could be included on a crammed Wednesday night program, or possibly introduce Mr. Biden on Thursday — to deliver a nationally televised rendition of the-Joe-I-know speech he has been giving during online Biden fund-raisers and round tables. It is not clear when Michelle Obama, who delivered what was widely regarded as the best speech at the 2012 convention in Charlotte, N.C., will speak. But planners have privately said they believe her address could attract the widest viewership outside of Mr. Biden’s." From "2020 Election Live Updates: Democratic Convention to Feature Obamas and Clintons" (NYT). Other than the Obamas, this sounds awful. I can't believe we're going to be stuck watching both of the Clintons. It's all so terribly old. Who wants to hear from Kasich?! And Warren and Sanders are the opposite of Biden. They're the candidates who got elbowed out by the party that didn't want them. But I guess they'll be good and play their part and concentrate on how it's all about getting rid of Trump. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TakeYouToTasker Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Cross-posted from another thread, but quite relevant here: Prominent Democrats recently ran a “war games” simulation, working through scenarios in order to develop post election strategy. John Podesta “played” Joe Biden. Under the scenario in which Biden lost, the strategy was to refuse to concede, contest the results, and to have traditional Blue strongholds declare Biden the winner. Democrats then insisted that in order for Blue states to certify the election result, they would demand a slate of “reforms” to the electoral process, including granting statehood to DC and Puerto Rico, and dividing California into 5 states in order to pad the Senate with 14 additional Blue seats; and to abolish the Electoral College. As it continued to play out, and court cases wound down, the eventuality was the political left pushing for civil war, and Washington, Oregon, and California seceding. Again, this was an official strategy session amongst high ranking Democrats. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
