No. But it won’t happen anyway. Whitmer is really the only realistic choice besides Kamala and Whitmer has said she doesn’t want the POTUS or VP nomination. It’ll likely be Kamala at the top of the ticket and one of a handful of male governors competing for the VP slot. Probably from a swing state like Shapiro or Cooper
She didn’t say she doesn’t want the office, she said she didn’t want to get it via a convention coup without Biden stepping aside willingly, a sentiment that basically everyone who’s been floated as a viable alternative has also expressed.
As much as we might see policy and electoral virtue in them, they’re all still politicians, they’ll take a promotion in an instant, but not until they think they can get it without becoming a target for party leadership.
