The speculation over who the final nominee will be has increased since the elites managed to force Joe Biden from the race in 2024. Some Democrats immediately endorsed Kamala and some delegates had already pledged their support to her.
The fact that Barack Obama (D-CA), and Rep. Nancy Pelosi haven’t endorsed her is a big sign that things may not be going well in Oz. This is a loud and clear sign that they must act quickly if she’s the candidate. Obama was confident that they would make a good choice and he did not believe the decision had already been made.
It’s worth asking, if he isn’t behind Harris, what are he, Pelosi, or the other people who don’t support Harris looking at instead? Other people who were speculated upon, like Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer and California Governor Gavin Newsom have spoken out. Whitmer has said she’s not running, and Newsom appears to be endorsing Harris at least for now.
Some have mentioned Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama in connection with the Chicago convention.
Joy Reid was talking with Jasmine Crockett, a Texas Representative. She made a very interesting comment while on MSNBC. Reid seemed excited about the possibility that Harris could be in attendance, while Crockett stated she would be all-in for her if anyone tried to push her aside.
Crockett: This idea of throwing out Joe Manchin and all these other people, if you all decide to go any other way, have fun with that. The only person that I will get out there and break my back for and campaign for and believe in is Kamala Harris. pic.twitter.com/vRyy3uO3jm

Does she think that Kamala has the best/only qualifications? This shows how out of their depth the Democrats are.
After a question by Reid, she revealed that there are Democrats who say it cannot be Harris. Reid asked: “Are confident, um, there’s no way that Harris can be the nominee?” “It seems like she’s getting a lot of state party endorsements?”
Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett says she’s “not confident at all” in Kamala’s chances — because “behind closed doors,” Democrats are saying “it can’t be her.” Yikes! pic.twitter.com/VYixspTSXJ

Crockett stated, “I’m not confident at any level.” “I know that behind closed doors, I will not name names, there were people who were sure that it couldn’t be vice president.” In one breath they said, “The president must be removed.” Then, in the next breath, they said, “It’s not her.”
Harris’s non-endorsement by the elites and the fact that she has gained some delegates make one think there is another shoe on the way.
