I still think Shapiro is the one. Biggest swing state in play. Like the MN Governor but bigger gamble. Kelly would be great too, but perhaps not certain he wins you AZ.
 
From the Left Wing Media thread…..Walz is far and away the best choice. Democrats would win many more elections if they adopted Walz’s policies and messaging. Sadly, it is because of the success he would bring to the party is why the donors will block him.

he's got serious problems , or she does.... because she endorses hamas terrorists to destroy israel while they cease fire
 
I heard today kelly is investing in china stuff, or something. who knows but she needs to find somebody stupider than her so the world doesn't want her to step down. if she gets in. that's impossible to find. maybe aoc.
 
She erased Trumps ability to get attention last week.

This week all eyes will be on who her running mate will be.

Next week will be about her becoming the official nominee during the virtual convention.

And a week and a half later is the big party. The in person Chicago convention.

That's a lot of time with Trump taking a back seat for headlines.
There's 99 days until the election. KH should get a bump from naming the VP. A short time later a bump from the convention. There are 75 days between the convention and the election. They need to plan a series of actions that will give a bump every 2 to 3 weeks. Those could be impactful policy announcements, cabinet type announcements, events, maybe a debate. Meanwhile about 60 days out the full force of proxies needs to be out heavy. From governors to stars to folks knocking on doors. Dems have a chance, but it's going to take a ton of work. I would say it's almost a lock that KH is slightly ahead at least after the convention. Right now polls are indicating it's a dead heat. Can they keep that momentum after the convention is the question.

I see the right wing media has already identified their talking points for whoever is the VP nominee

Honestly?
I don’t dispute that but I don’t know if it’s a ticket America is quite ready for just yet.
Sadly I agree. I wish we didn’t see gender at all when it comes to our candidates (and yes Biden is absolutely guilty of that). Two women would be good if they are the best candidates, two men would be good if they are the best candidates.
