"bring balance back to the Democratic party". Joe is worthless.

"bring balance back to the Democratic party". Joe is worthless.

I’d rather have him explicitly in the fold than not.

Joe,

What’s with this nonsense?

• “……bring normality back…”
• “……bring balance back to the Democratic Party.”
• “……bring normalcy back to Washington.”

The Democrats aren’t creating chaos in our politics.

MSNBC kind of wet blanketing a bit by showing that Walz didn't really out perform Biden in the red areas of Minnesota, but did better than Clinton did. He has been bolstered by the solid blue areas of Minnesota. He might not pull in as many voters in red areas as Dems hope.

 

[Macksbrownies]

Just like when Clint Eastwood brought up the empty chair, Walz should bring up a couch on stage at his first press conference.

As a moderate, I really like this pick, although I would vote for an inanimate carbon rod over Trump.

It's a total backhanded complement but at least it's praising the VP pick. That's about the best you can get from Joe.

I think he’ll pull in a whole lot of rural, working, and middle class folks who aren’t already brainwashed MAGAs and who may be Trump-curious but also sick of the chaos and divisiveness that Trump brings.

Whatever people think of Manchin, that’s a big statement from him. Hits pretty hard at the GOP attack line that Walz is a crazy liberal.

 

[uncjhodges]

It’s such bullshit because Walz is pretty progressive- but he is a white male

 

[RockyMtnHoo]

Is Walz really all that progressive, or just a common sense moderate? The right wingers have made anything that’s not ultra-wacky conservative, into extreme-left “progressive”.

 

[JCTarheel82]

Wow, was not expecting Walz. My Minnesotan relatives are gonna be thrilled with this pick. Dude is experienced politically, exceedingly genuine, and super likeable. A sharp contrast to Vance.

 

[altmin]

JD Vance answering questions about Walz could only talk about Shapiro not being picked. Such a weird strategy.

A common sense moderate? That’s Shapiro. Walz is way to the left of moderate.

 

[lawtig02]

Its based on lies, so it suits you well

 

[RockyMtnHoo]

How so?

 

[lawtig02]

How so?

Because feeding kids in school = extreme leftism, apparently.

 

[mpaer]

How so?

Shapiro like him some Voucher schools

 

[HeelYeah2012]

How so?

I don’t think even Walz himself would try to claim he’s a moderate. He claims he’s a progressive and that progressives shouldn’t compromise their progressive values. He was quoted as saying one man’s socialism is another man’s neighborliness.

The strategy with Walz is “this guy believes in our progressive agenda but he’s relatable to people in the Midwest”. I don’t think the strategy with Walz has anything to do with him being moderate politically.
