48. Ok. He just moved up to my first place pick. Very charismatic, even in a t-shirt and ballcap.

Pete is my dream sky_masterson Jul 2024 #1

good points CurtEastPoint Jul 2024 #4

I agree wholeheartedly. Kittycatkat Jul 2024 #27

Mark Kelly voted with Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin against Biden's pick for Labor Sec'y. BComplex Jul 2024 #28

So his vote had no impact AZSkiffyGeek Jul 2024 #39

"and his vote was meaningless." Well, not to me, really. BComplex Jul 2024 #44

That plays well to those who might not want to vote for a Democrat sky_masterson Jul 2024 #51

As a Senator, Joe Biden seemed immovably centrist. Aristus Jul 2024 #52

I'm all in for Walz now anyway. I don't see any downside with him. BComplex Jul 2024 #59

Mayor Pete is a smart guy. And, him being gay is not a "negative." PeaceWave Jul 2024 #63

Cooper can not run for governor again anyway. LisaL Jul 2024 #2

Thanks for posting this. Food for thought..... democrank Jul 2024 #3

Cooper's risk might be worth it Fiendish Thingy Jul 2024 #5

Yep. Cooper won NC twice, which is not an easy thing to do for a democrat. LisaL Jul 2024 #6

Gov Cooper clarified that the Lt Gov has little power when he is out of state FloridaBlues Jul 2024 #43

I don't think Robinson would be dumb enough to go off the deep end every time Cooper left dsc Jul 2024 #7

I don't think you've met Mark Robinson..... brooklynite Jul 2024 #8

I have but he is currently under some supervision apparently dsc Jul 2024 #10

Going by his commercials, someone is holding his leash. Hard. mucholderthandirt Jul 2024 #61

Cooper is my governor and he says he's not worried about leaving the state. yardwork Jul 2024 #22

Walz Is My Dark-Horse Choice RustyWheels Jul 2024 #11

If feeding kids, supporting abortion rights, providing tuition free college etc is "left leaning" then I guess Nanjeanne Jul 2024 #18

I just moved from Minneapolis, lived there 2 yrs and I think MN in many ways LizBeth Jul 2024 #24

I pretty much agree with everything you said, RustyWheels. Walz is a great pick. BComplex Jul 2024 #46

Kelly is safest... Buttigieg is aspirational. WarGamer Jul 2024 #12

My choice is Andy Besher. I know he is a risk, but I think he could bring a lot to the campaign. Fla Dem Jul 2024 #13

He can't bring a state in...Shapiro brings us must win PA... Demsrule86 Jul 2024 #17

I think Beshear would help win other states. yardwork Jul 2024 #25

I agree, gab13by13 Jul 2024 #36

Not at all impressed with Beshear. BComplex Jul 2024 #47

I am seeing Pete Buttigieg EVERYWHERE pinkstarburst Jul 2024 #14

As I recall Obama went with an older VP. LisaL Jul 2024 #35

I would pick Shapiro...he can help deliver PA...I like Pete. Demsrule86 Jul 2024 #15

Josh Shapiro...he's an articulate bulldog... agingdem Jul 2024 #33

Agreed! My reasons.Smart, thinks quick on his feet, military service, held elected office. QUICK to defend his positions usaf-vet Jul 2024 #16

The way Walz frames positions (supposedly left leaning) is brilliant. Video at Harris rally from yesterday Nanjeanne Jul 2024 #19

That is fun. I like him... LizBeth Jul 2024 #21

Ok. He just moved up to my first place pick. Very charismatic, even in a t-shirt and ballcap. BComplex Jul 2024 #48

Personally I want Pete and kicks ass in all interview. Fast and smart. I like Walz and LizBeth Jul 2024 #20

I've been thinking as well. I feel the best one Bluesaph Jul 2024 #23

Great post DeepWinter Jul 2024 #26

Buttigieg and Walz are my favorite picks. Energetic, young, well-spoken, smart. BComplex Jul 2024 #29

I don't get a young vibe at all from Walz onandup Jul 2024 #32

I think he projects a younger vibe when he talks than he looks. But he also has kind of a good attitude thing playing BComplex Jul 2024 #37

David Hogg is a Walz fan moonscape Jul 2024 #56

"Pro Gaza" Democrats like myself don't object to nominating a Jew onandup Jul 2024 #30

"Pro peace" Democrats like myself also don't object to nominating a Jew. quaint Jul 2024 #34

Before Mark Kelly became a senator, he made millions speaking and consulting, records show quaint Jul 2024 #31

Nice try re. Walz BeyondGeography Jul 2024 #38

Well said. Nanjeanne Jul 2024 #42

I'm with you, BeyondGeography! I'm now 100% Walz. He has EVERYTHING we need. BComplex Jul 2024 #50

Think down to McRaven and Kelly with Cooper close behind. gibraltar72 Jul 2024 #41

As much as I'd love to see Beshear or Buttigieg in there, Bayard Jul 2024 #45

Gov. Walz H2O Man Jul 2024 #49

Pete doesn't bring a state though themaguffin Jul 2024 #53

Josh Shapiros worst traits are not his religion or school voucher position ColinC Jul 2024 #54

Donald Trump, sexual predator. OnDoutside Jul 2024 #62

Exactly. His flaws(if you even want to call them that) pale in comparison to an actual rapist ColinC Jul 2024 #67

So, I'm all over the place on this angrychair Jul 2024 #55

Shapiro on school vouchers.... spanone Jul 2024 #57

I like Mark Kelly. Charlie Chapulin Jul 2024 #58

Sorry but Not speaking for all young voters but Kelly isn't someone they look up to. He represents military to them. flying_wahini Jul 2024 #60

Re Shapiro OnDoutside Jul 2024 #64

There is a big difference between not being able to deliver a state and being the cause of losing an election. elocs Jul 2024 #65
