Playbook reports:
The big talker in politics today takes place in New Hampshire, where centrist group No Labels is holding a bipartisan event teasing a possible 2024 “unity” ticket — and Democrats are already freaking out that such a bid will undercut President Joe Biden and help land Donald Trump back in the White House.
Adding to the intrigue, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) — who loves nothing more than trolling his own party — will be attending the event, a decision that has raised eyebrows among his fellow Democrats, who worry that the Mountaineer could not only spoil Biden’s reelection effort, but also cost them a Senate seat should he choose not to seek another term.
Read the full article. Yesterday former Sen. Joe Lieberman claimed that No Labels will not field a presidential candidate if polls show that such a bid would play “spoiler” to the nominee from either major party.
