Is this supposed to be some sort of revelation? She didn’t get anywhere in the 2020 primary. No one has any genuine enthusiasm for her. It makes no sense that she was VP in the first place.
Sure it does. The Vice President is an almost useless job.
The VP has two tasks under the constitution: Emcee the senate, and be the President’s understudy. It’s a position that only has power if there’s a tie in the senate, the VP gets to cast a tie breaking vote. It’s not uncommon to stick a candidate who has some momentum but the party doesn’t like there to get them out of the way. Look up Teddy Roosevelt’s career to see how foolproof that plan is.
Bernie was gonna take it in 2020 so Carville convinced Clyburn to endorse Biden in South Carolina, flat out stating that he did not care if there was electoral interest past the current election.

Biden didn’t get anywhere in the 2008 primary either.
Blame James Carville for Biden.
