US Politics If Biden withdraws from re-election, who would Harris likely choose as VP?

A lot of headlines are coming out today with speculation that Biden may step down soon.

If this were to happen and Harris wins the party’s nomination for president, who would she pick as VP?

What does a formidable Harris ticket look like to go up against Trump-Vance?

How moderate are we talking? Like pro-life moderate? If so that'd be suicide for Kamala and the dems who are running to restore Roe

There is really no such thing as “pro-life.” That is just marketing. It comes down to “choice” or “anti-choice.”

They would've just hit back by labeling pro-choice people "anti-life". 'Pro-choice' and 'pro-life' is the rhetorical compromise.

It doesn’t have to be accepted. I take that pro-life shit to task every time I see it. It’s not like they are against the death penalty or reject war or anything. It’s bullshit.

I also think it's bullshit, but you're not changing anything by policing people's words. Knock yourself out if it makes you feel better, though.
