[AGL] Biden will pick Warren for VP

[Michael Eisenstadt]

I read about Stacey Abrams in Wikipedia. As a lawyer, politician, 
entrepreneur, author of chick-lit novels, she has had a more impressive 
career than I had imagined. She admits that she has no empirical 
evidence that she was gypped out of the governor's office, yet argues 
that if x number of voters had not been purged from the rolls, they 
would have voted for her (why?) and that she would have won the 
governorship of some Southern state. That sounds to me like an obsession 
that she should overcome and that she should stop being a sore loser and 
claiming that /she/ is the rightful governor. And yet and yet she still 
might be picked by Biden and some day wind up as the president of the 
US. OTOH, Biden already has the black vote sewed up so he doesn't need 
her for that reason. Abrams has all of her wits and is demonstrably 
capable in various capacities (lawyer, legislator in her state 
legislature, author of several chick-lit novels, innovator of various 
do-good projects) which is more than one can say about Biden.
