Today, the world is witnessing something not often seen in politics: Joy. Democrats everywhere seem to be ecstatic over Joe Biden's selection of Kamala Harris as a running mate.
Count us in. Senator Harris was our candidate for 2020, so we're perfectly happy to crown her the Biden heir apparent. Now, of course, we just have to knuckle down and win this thing. In the meantime, here are a few observations as we soak in the news.
Biden picking Kamala shows what a manly man he is: He can take a punch and not hold a grudge. Unlike someone else we know.
Speaking of that person, Benedict Donald immediately called her nasty, as we knew he would. He also referred to her as his "number-one draft pick." That's what they said about the possibility of running against Susan Rice. They just take their tired old talking points and paste them onto whomever, don't they? (P.S. With the Big Ten canceled, maybe Trump should avoid sports metaphors for awhile.)
Will "Mother" Pence allow her husband to participate in the Vice Presidential debate in October? After all, Kamala is a (GASP!) woman. Mikey might have to get a "please excuse" note from her. Because Harris will destroy him.
Memo to Jaime Harrison: Biden's selection of Harris just increased black turnout in South Carolina by 2 to 5 percent.
Here's a Kamala fact you may not know: She used to live in Montreal, when her mom did research at the Jewish General Hospital and taught at McGill University. She graduated from Westmount High School there in 1981. Gee, maybe if she becomes Vice President she can help us get back into Canada. We're missing the True North a LOT.
Finally, the Biden campaign has just reported that they had their best fundraising hour ever, between 4 and 5 PM today after Harris was announced. We just chipped in a few bucks, too, and will keep our eyes peeled for more Biden-Harris swag in their online store. If you'd like to donate, click here. We cats PURR.
