Great news about #VPPick ! The choice of #Walz sends a signal to the #Dem base that the party knows a good deal of the fresh energy & volunteers are folks from the #Progressive wing

Could not be more excited for the #VPPick from the #harriscampaign Gov. Tim Walz has a long history of bipartisanship and compromise. He's a well established governor, teacher and military man. He got #FreeLunch for school kids, protected #abortionrights and #reproductiverights and managed his state through covid. In my eyes an excellent pick. 🤩 #harrisvppick

Kamala Harris taps Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate https://www.npr.org/2024/08/06/nx-s1-5057604/tim-walz-harris-vice-president

Basically, why should we risk losing those seats to a MAGA candidate when they're pretty secure right now?

That's why I think the #Democratic #VPPick should be someone from within the administration: that person should be #PeteButtigieg. He won't be abandoning a post that could be picked up by a MAGA nut. Besides that, he's the best cheerleader the Democratic party has. And after being second in line to the presidency and tie-breaking vote in the Senate, that's the VP's main job.

Something that has been bugging me lately is the certainty that many pundits have that Harris will be choosing between a number of swing-state governors to be her vice president. Maybe, under normal circumstances that would work. Like, that was great thinking for both parties towards elections prior to 2016. But we're currently dealing with a cult of personality. Specifically, #Trumpers.

@GottaLaff Beshear is ok, but I like Shapiro. We need Mark Kelly in the Senate, but he’d be a good choice too. #VPpick @thepoliticalcat

Shapiro's views on protesters in the past bother me. His claim that the BDS movement was antisemitic was just plain wrong. But feel free to elucidate your choice with a comment on your #VPnominee pick. Thanks to everyone for voting, please re-toot!
