Kelly over Shapiro for me, but I’d prefer AOC for the lulz and the win.

    And I’d love for Mark Kelly to be, you know, the actual president if something happens.

      He opposes Medicare for all, does not support the green new deal, and he supported expanding oil drilling.

      He’s too moderate right for me. If this is what you people support, or you think this is the best tactic to beat trump, then fine. But there’s a lot of support for this guy and I never see any actual substance as to why.

        I think a moderate VP pick from a swing state covers some gaps for a Harris ticket. He could also bring more votes from servicemembers. I wouldn’t necessarily say he would be the best president but he would be good for the campaign.

        It’s 100% about beating Trump in swing states. Whoever Harris can get more votes from in those states is who I’d want her to pick. I would love a more progressive pick personally, but that’s not likely to win the swing states.

          I disagree with this, I think some of the swing States would benefit a lot from a more progressive pick. Especially Michigan

        I don’t think I’ll change your mind by saying this, but for the young’uns here? Don’t be like this guy and let perfect be the enemy of good

          I’d never heard “don’t let perfect be the enemy of good”. Now I’ve heard it twice in one comment thread.

            Life, real life, is about compromise and seeking the win-win outcomes. By all means stake out your boundaries and defend them zealously, but remember you live among people with other needs and so some give-and-take is necessary. Perhaps even a little healthy.

            You can’t win them all, but you can walk away from most negotiations with something.
