      Well, one of them has managed quite well for the past few years. Sure he is old. Sure he might die. Is he a bad option because of this? No. He dies, you get Harris. Maybe not exciting but not Republican crazy bad.

        And he might not die, he might just keep getting less able to do the job. Either way, that’s really not someone people want to hear all that much about unless they’re already invested in the horse race.

        Most people don’t want to hear about crazy grandpa or boring grandpa unless they’re at grandpa’s house.

          If might was money, we’d all be rich. He might not. Missunderstand me correctly, I know it’s not optimal and I would have preferred something else. All I’m saying is, there are not two bad choices. Only one bad. The other is eeeeh.
