I speak from the point of view of people.

Not Google in the Clouds.

Really.

How often do you find yourself talking about politics with people that you would describe as "Corporate Liberals" in real life (not "in the Clouds") that you've had conversations about potential alternatives to Joe Biden?

I'm in a blue county in a red state, so my real-life cohort is filled with "mushy" center-left Democrats - the sort you would deride as "Corporate Liberals." None of them are talking about actual replacements for Biden as a serious possibility. When the occasional, "what if" conversation has come up, Harris is always mentioned as one of the possibilities. She's the Veep for Pete's sake! Of course she's going to be one of the first people that folks think of as a successor if the President is unable to continue campaigning. Sometimes Newsom gets mentioned, but never Obama - because most Democrats know that regards the Presidency as a terrible job and one that she does not desire.

So who are you talking with that are only about Newsom and Obama and not Harris?

I'm not asking that question of the fictional character "EchotaSheeple" that you like to perform on this website. Seriously, I'd like to actually have a conversation with you without the play-acting and obscure allusions and affectations. Just....as a person. Do you really have a number of center-left liberals in your circle that you talk politics? Have none of them even mentioned Harris as playing a role in a post-Biden scramble for the nomination? Is that really what you've had conversations about?
