They, the Biden campaign and whoever's among the handlers behind the scenes,* are still dangling prospects of Warren or Abrams, which I think is purely a matter of pandering to key demographics. That's very hard to imagine when the club's ownership includes Bloomberg and Dimon. Warren, especially, who stands for anti-Wall Street however fake she may be. (Abrams's group has taken Bloomberg money.) I think either one would be a signal that they intend to lose, but with dignity, ha ha. Harris and Klob are supposed to be the insider, ideologically reliable choices, the smart-money bets. A horrible minor Democratic insider who correctly tipped me off to the Tim Kaine choice months in advance of the 2016 convention is signalling Klob. But in truth both are old news and very weak also-rans. Leaving aside some who are just media larks, I think they'll want a new face.
But wait, now I'm thinking as though I were their strategist. I need to dumb it down to get it right. Klob it is.

* That would be the postmodern national Tammany mob that did the last-second elevation of Biden so as to stop Sanders, knowing that this means a high chance of losing to Trump. Obviously Obama and Jill Stein are necessary members of this circle, and Anita Dunn seems to be the quarterback. Some team of oligarchs is involved. On the edges are the willing harakiri candidates (remember Pete and Amy? Beto?), or their primary handlers. The usual Clinton mob seem not to be included.
