As the title says, while on MSNBC Thursday Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) told Lawrence O’Donnell that she was removing herself as a candidate to be Joe Biden’s vice presidential running mate.
This leaves Senators Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren and failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams as the ones listed as being on the short list still in the running.
