Harris VP pick 'most important' decision, Pelosi says
Vice President Kamala Harris' choice for her running mate is the "most important" decision she has to make as her campaign gets started, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said.
All of her choices for a running mate appear to be good, Pelosi added.
"It's a difficult decision because they are all so great," she told ABC News' George Stephanopoulos on "Good Morning America" on Monday. "It is the most important decision for her to make. Not just about who can help win, but who can help serve and lead and whose confidence she trusts.

Sen. JD Vance says he wears VP pick criticism as a 'badge of honor'
In a Fox News interview Sunday, Sen. JD Vance responded to criticism of him being picked as former President Donald Trump’s running mate, saying he takes it as a "badge of honor."
"All I can do is go out there and prosecute the case against Kamala Harris to remind people that things were more prosperous and more peaceful when Donald Trump was president," Vance said. "Look, I recognize there are a lot of folks even in the GOP establishment and certainly on the far left who don't like the fact that Donald Trump picked me, I actually take their criticism as a badge of honor."
Vance also hit back at Democrats who’ve called him "weird," calling it "a lot of projection."
"They can call me whatever they want to. The middle school taunts don't bother me," he said. "What offends me is what Kamala Harris has done to this country over three and a half years."
