LAURA INGRAHAM (HOST): Former Obama advisor David Axelrod said tonight Biden actually clicked best with Governor Whitmer, but she's not a woman of color, and runs Michigan like a tin-pot dictatorship. And the other candidates were political small fries without any type of experience or name recognition that you'd want in a VP.
Of course, Biden's big mistake of course was narrowing his options by limiting his choice on the basis of skin color. And on planet Earth, that used to be called bias, or even racism. Uh, using color as a metric? Well, that's what he decided to do.
And as someone running for the nation's highest office, Biden is morally obligated to pick the best person to take his place in the event of a tragedy, regardless of race or gender or ethnicity, any of it. But he never even tried to do that. How cynical.
Instead, he viewed the whole thing as a box checking exercise for the woke crowd. He should have made his choice just on merit, but now he's stuck with Harris.
