Isn't that what they will be voting on, tomorrow, or am I totally misinterpreting this:

sounds good to me..I have always backed a biden/harris ticket... samnsara Jan 2019 #1
They have been my preliminary dream team as well. lark Jan 2019 #35
Kaisch is a dangerous opponent. He can sound reasonable most of the time but he is a snake. It allgood33 Jan 2019 #38
Good scenario. Crutchez_CuiBono Jan 2019 #2
But an optimistic guess hardly justifies "Happy Days Are Here Again!" Towlie Jan 2019 #30
Biden too old. Nt USALiberal Jan 2019 #3
And Nancy P too old to be a good speaker. Too old like that?? Cousin Dupree Jan 2019 #5
So no age is too old? 90, 100, 110? Really? Nt USALiberal Jan 2019 #10
If someone is capable of doing a job, why should their age disqualify them? Cousin Dupree Jan 2019 #15
Senator Byrd comes to mind...when he spoke...I listened...for a long long time. Crutchez_CuiBono Jan 2019 #46

I'm not the biggest Biden fan (although I'd absolutely vote for him if he's the nominee), BUT.... RobDennis Jan 2019 #53
We need younger canidates who can pull in younger voters. Nt USALiberal Jan 2019 #54
I agree, but that doesn't disqualify older ones with more experience under their belts. RobDennis Jan 2019 #55
Biden is not too lod calguy Jan 2019 #58
why would republicans that support Trump nominate Kasich ? JI7 Jan 2019 #4
They won't. The Trumpers were a lot of first time voters. Funtatlaguy Jan 2019 #7
most Republicans support trump. JI7 Jan 2019 #9
It's verylukewarm. They like lower taxes/regulations/conservative judges. Funtatlaguy Jan 2019 #12
no. they enjoy his bigotry JI7 Jan 2019 #18
A significant segment does and they wouldn't vote for Nikki Haley. Funtatlaguy Jan 2019 #19

How would Kasich/Haley happen if the GOP shuts down their primaries? Siwsan Jan 2019 #8
Even if this happens, Mueller's report will change things. Funtatlaguy Jan 2019 #14
Hopefully! Siwsan Jan 2019 #17
Help us, Obi-Wan Mueller, you're our only hope! Towlie Jan 2019 #34
No primaries are being cancelled. former9thward Jan 2019 #50
It did seem a bit strange to send out such a sign of outright panic about being primaried Siwsan Jan 2019 #51
Did it seem strange when the DNC backed Obama for re-election in 2012? former9thward Jan 2019 #60
I don't recall anyone, serious, threatening to primary President Obama. Siwsan Jan 2019 #61
Is Jason Voorhees (Slate.com) reputable? He's got a post today about Biden helping a GOP Rep. TheBlackAdder Jan 2019 #11
Jason Voorhees? rownesheck Jan 2019 #13
Probably a Freudian slip. . . Josh Voorhees. TheBlackAdder Jan 2019 #16
Saw something linked on DK that made that point also shanny Jan 2019 #37
You lost me at "moderate wing" of GOP. "Anti-Trump" would make at least bullwinkle428 Jan 2019 #20
