The Surge: Elizabeth Warren tops our ranking of Biden’s VP options.

The Surge: Elizabeth Warren tops our ranking of Biden’s VP options.

Slate  

The Surge has long been doubtful of Warren’s chances of being selected. More broadly, it goes against everything we know about the Democratic Party to think it, as an institution, might take anything even approaching a risk when it’s sitting on a cushy, early polling lead. For Warren to be selected, there will have to be a sudden paradigm shift in the way establishment Democrats think: Specifically, they will have to trust that suburban moderates, lapsed Republicans, and older voters will not run away screaming if Biden spends his first major decision trying to shore up disengaged younger, more progressive voters. Stan Greenberg, Bill Clinton’s former pollster and far from a leftist advocate, has been pushing Warren to the Biden campaign, telling them that “Warren is the obvious solution” to unifying the Democratic Party behind Joe’s candidacy. The two have reportedly grown closer since Biden called Warren following her older brother’s death from COVID-19.
