Kamala Harris VP pick thread

[MeetTheFerentzes]

Not a fan of the choice. Harris had Minnesota wrapped up and I don't find Tim Walz to be all that compelling.

Should have gone with Kelly or Shaprio IMO.

I was hoping for Kelly to balance the ticket some, but with Walz she has basically secured WI and MI. As long as she still has Shapiro's support she'll keep PA. Just has to focus on making sure NV or AZ are in her column. Wouldn't surprise me if NC, GA and maybe IN are back in play now.

 

[MeetTheFerentzes]

If you're rooting for Trump, Walz is a great choice.

GMAFB. You've had this response cued up no matter who the choice was.

WALZ HATES THE SECOND AMENDMENT!!!!!

I wasn't going to vote for them but now you've gone ahead and solidified for me. Thanks for the information.

He doesn’t seem like a weird guy or an asshole, so he’ll make a nice contrast to the GOP side.

And who is this Sullivan guy?

He's the backup QB for Iowa. Duh.

 

[MeetTheFerentzes]

What, you think it was just a coincidence that all the short list nominees were white men? I guess Buttigieg doesn't exactly fit that role but he was still a white dude.

Mayor Pete is 10x the man you are.

The rejection must have been quite the hit to his ego.

If he had the massive ego you're suggesting, he would have strong-armed Harris into making him her pick. Nice try.

this is great!! she just threw in to towel. she lost Pennsylvania. with this loser, they may have trouble getting a win in Minnesota. somebody is sabotaging her and throwing her under the bus. I thought for sure shapiro was in.

You've been pushing your "Dems throwing in the towel" narrative ever since Biden dropped out of the race. Not working anymore. Try something new.

How do you figure Tim Walz secures her WI and MI?

I can assure you as a resident of Indiana. Indiana is not in play for Harris. If Indiana is in play for Harris she wins this in a blowout. Indiana went for a D once in my lifetime, 2008 for Obama. I don't think I will ever see Indiana go for a D again.

Told you guys Kamala Harris is not a leader:

I thought it was going to be Shapiro. I didn't think Harris was dumb enough to add someone so liberal to her ticket.

The moderates will determine the next POTUS.

A lot in common with Whitmer, and MI & WI haven't gone to different candidates since '88.

If Indiana is in play for Harris she wins this in a blowout.

As a fellow IN resident, I completely agree.
Mike Pence has clearly been opposed to Trump this year, and Hoosiers are obsessed with the Pence family. A Harris endorsement from him and IN is blue.

Edit:

it worked when he quit and they got a woman who is worse than him, then she got fake momentum going, then she picked this guy and she gave up and quit and it worked again!! it works both times.

I don't think that secures WI or MI.

 

[noleclone2]

Fun Fact - Harris and Walz are the same age!

 

[MeetTheFerentzes]

I don't think that secures WI or MI.

I think it does. Let's hope I'm right.
