Honestly, I had forgotten about Kamala when arguing that Biden was the best bet. My argument always lay in, "Needs to be familiar because Trump has this uncanny ability to swamp somebody without a track record", and I completely forgot Kamala fit that exactly in the same way Biden did - By being a VP

SO glad I was wrong, too - It was a lot of me groaning, "Oh god Biden is our best bet dear fuck no..."

It was that plus the "if Biden drops out it will be a whole ordeal establishing a new candidate." It wasn't. It was quick, painless, and even the VP choosing was relatively quick and made people happy.
