    Every time I see Pelosi I'm reminded of someone...

    Breyer resigns. Harris moves to SCOTUS. Pelosi to VP.
    If the freedom of speech is taken away
    then dumb and silent we may be led,
    like sheep to the slaughter.

    I don't think this would ever happen. In order for Harris to move to SCOTUS, she would have to go through confirmation hearings in the Senate without her own tie-breaking vote for confirmation. I think every single Republican would vote against her (and maybe a few Dems) so she wouldn't get confirmed.

    Aside from that, Pelosi would have to get confirmed as VP, also without the tie-breaking vote from Harris. And who would want Pelosi as VP? I don't think even Biden would. Pelosi's poll numbers, outside of her own little Congressional District, are even worse than Biden's.

    I was just posting why she would even think about not retiring.

    As for Harris, I don't trust some of the senators. Dems only need one defector. Romney, Murkowski, Collins. Or, how bad do the other Republicans want to get rid of her as the VP.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see Clinton nominated as VP if they can move Harris out.

    I hadn't considered that. I would if Biden would do that.

    If he did, he'd better also hire someone to taste all his food before he eats anything, and double is Secret Service detail.
