Let's haver some fun with the VP nomination. Who would be your choice? Feel free to post the rationa

Not Ginni - Binni as in Netanyahu - I know we've all moved on from the IDF playing whackamole with anyone too swarthy over there - but our "far left" really thinks the America is somehow more than marginally culpable and magically able to stop the IDF from murdering people?

That ship sailed long ago when Israel achieved Neighborhood Nuclear Superiority

 

Kelley has the bonafides and the ability to be VP. Does that mean Kari Lake has a shot at winning one of two seats if Kelly becomes the VP? Both seats are up for grabs since Sinema is not running. If Senator Kelly runs to be the VP, the Arizona governor (Dem Hobbs) then selects an appointment. but both Senator seats are vacant and are up for election this year.

Does anyone know how this plays out in the Arizona process of selecting Senators?

 

You're right. Of course, in a better country we don't just don't get Trump- we don't get Nixon, Reagan, Dubya or his father, either.

 

Not with your posting history

 

I'm staying out of that thread. Criticizing Netanyahu under a username tied to your email and potentially other accounts is a fool's errand. But you're right- this gives him cover, because the world is looking at Kamala and Donald right now.

 

And see, here I am putting the blame squarely on the shoulders of the people that elect Netanyahu

 

Apologies, for some reason I missed the Jamaican part.

 

Do people really seriously consider VP candidates when voting? I’m hard pressed to remember losing VP candidates once the election is over.

 

I kind of understand why, and I think you probably will if you give it some thought. My yellow star is visible, but his will get him in slightly more trouble than mine will, depending on who's in the parking lot when he leaves with a SO or who pulls me over on/runs me off the road at night.

If I were 40 years younger, I'd leave just to be able to support a club in a proper league. Anywhere there's jazz and football, and enough black people that I can commiserate with them when race becomes an issue.

Look at it like this- if you were living in any of the places he'd choose to relocate to when this shit popped off in America, would you come here? Leaving is really just a matter of overcoming one's personal inertia.

 

After 2024, the Judas Caucus gets purged

 

Palin didn't hurt McCain IMO, because he was not going to win no matter who he chose. McCain was running as a statesman against a Rock Star statesman. He was Mondale without the Former Veep cred. He was Dole, Romney, GHWB (who doesn't win without being the Veep IMO).

 

I just don't think that "independents, conservatives, Republicans, Christians, white males, and in general potential voters who mistrust the left but don't care much for Trump either" is a real category that the Dems can attract. Is this election about appealing to the "middle," or energizing the base? Beshear won't put Kentucky in play, and I have concerns he'd not do much to energize the base.

As much as I'd personally like Pete, Kelly is impressive. Military background, gun safety, makes Arizona an easier win for Dems. I wonder, too, if he being from a border state might help in an election where Trump and Vance will talk incessantly about immigration.

 

If there's a Hell, that filthy SOB is there now.

 

These are all swing state candidates with the exception of MN. Besides KY is really small.
