2008 I remember a DU member used to live near Biden, and saw secret service show up [View all]

at Bidens's house before it hit the national news that he'd been chosen over Hillary to be the VP.
DU scooped the news.

Do we have anyone here now like that? Anyone live near the VP picks?

I thought she might go with Shapiro, but I'm wondering now if she might go with Walz.
Anyone with some scoop in those neighborhoods?

The anticipation is 🤪
