This is a bold choice by VP Harris [View all] BeyondGeography Aug 2024 OP

Yes I feel this too. I haven't felt this emotional in a long time. They are going to be great and it's going to Nanjeanne Aug 2024 #1

I agree. This will be a fun campaign MaryMagdaline Aug 2024 #57

"FUN" may be the key word. If we could sneak spies into each campaign to video secretly, the mood would be brewens Aug 2024 #62

I just heard that Walz kept saying that he wants to bring a sense of JOY to campaigning. And that's going to be Nanjeanne Aug 2024 #64

It's Team Normal vs Team Weird surfered Aug 2024 #77

Yes! I smile every time I see his face MaryMagdaline Aug 2024 #56

Definately a Marley man in spirit. Tommymac Aug 2024 #80

My sense is she is going to run to the center, and Walz will protect her left flank with progressives. Fiendish Thingy Aug 2024 #6

Exactly how I see it. It's as simple as that, and I am thrilled to say the least msfiddlestix Aug 2024 #54

Nice choice. murielm99 Aug 2024 #7

I love this. And as a retired teacher pinkstarburst Aug 2024 #31

There are a lot of loonie Lutherans and Catholics in outstate MN geardaddy Aug 2024 #82

It's not bold at all - it's the safe pick. She went for the white male "dad" who is everything TBF Aug 2024 #24

Disagree, there were "safer" options on the table. BeyondGeography Aug 2024 #32

Read my entire post - he is the vanilla white male she needed. I'll repeat it: good pick. nt TBF Aug 2024 #36

It was a short post, I think I was able to absorb it in its entirety on the first try BeyondGeography Aug 2024 #37

He's just a little older than me & looks like every guy I went to high school with - TBF Aug 2024 #43

Who would you say was safer ? JI7 Aug 2024 #41

Definitely Kelly, Beshear as well IMO BeyondGeography Aug 2024 #44

Lets hope Harris/Waltz and the American voter all dance to the same tune...😁.. A little quick backround FYI mitch96 Aug 2024 #33

I think she made a great choice Luciferous Aug 2024 #35

I don't think it's a bold pick. Self Esteem Aug 2024 #52

I agree, Pete would have been a bold pick, but here's info I received this morning in an e-mail generalbetrayus Aug 2024 #66

Just think-back in 1999 Walz was leading the football team to victory & started the school's first gay-straight alliance Nanjeanne Aug 2024 #68

Wow, every dang post today is making me super excited n/t hibbing Aug 2024 #69
