One thing to think about with Democrats is that they almost always pick the most responsible choice once they’ve figured out what they are looking for. If they want a black woman, it’s not going to be Stacy Abrams, given that there are a dozen more experienced, ready to be President black women already to choose from. If they want a mayor, Eric Garcetti makes more sense than Buttigieg. Democrats don’t choose hype VPs, they choose ready to be President VPs. They will not have a Quayle or Palin on their watch.
