I don't know where to put this, so I'll just do it here.

If Stacey Abrams wins her race, does she really become a contender for President in 2024? I find that difficult to bet money on.

What I do see is her being a viable replacement for Harris in a 2nd Biden admin. I think we agree that the problem with Harris is Biden can't get rid of the first female person of color VP. But maybe that's true, *unless* he can replace her with another one. Maybe?

I'm happy to hear why this is wrong, but...

I think Abrams would take it.

I think Harris would also play along in exchange for a Federal Bench appointment.

Abrams is from a state that Biden could use a stronger lead in.

After a successful term as VP Abrams then has a more reasonable shot at POTUS, which is a thing given the shallow bench in the Dem Party right now.

What am I missing?

And why aren't you BBQing right now?

It's a tempting thought, but only if Abrams moves to the center. Her first year as governor would give her plenty of opportunities to do just that.
