Judd Gregg: The coming Biden coup
By Judd Gregg, opinion contributor — 07/06/20 06:00 AM EDT
It is more than a possibility, and slightly less than a likelihood, that Joe Biden will be elected president in November.
Biden has made it clear that a woman will be his running mate.
What is becoming equally apparent is that he may be cornered into choosing a socialist or progressive as that person.
As he runs his campaign from his basement, allowing President Trump to stomp his feet and shout as he tries to mount a more traditional campaign, Biden has shown little inclination to take on his own foot-stomping base.
Thus the socialist/progressive wing of the Democratic Party is now center-stage — and insisting one of their own be Biden’s vice-presidential candidate.
That individual could be Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) or Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) or any number of lesser-known advocates for the far-left.
