    Just split up MN so each lake is its own state, thousands of new senators to pick from

    I want the guy who live streamed from space for a year. Not just because of that, but the political calculus is perfect for a win in Nov.

    We really need this win.

    If I had my dream choice, I’d go for Buttigeig, because, my goodness, what a historic moment that would be to get the first mixed-race woman president and an lgbtq vp— and holy shit can that guy just skewer republicans in any debate. He does Fox News interviews like he’s an Olympian going for the gold medal in fucking up fascists. It’s so fun to watch.

    Buuut, that might be too much to risk and Kelly can bring in AZ votes that Pete can’t, which is a critical swing state. Plus, Buttigieg has done such an amazing job as secretary of the DOT, I think he should just keep doing that.

      Kelly unfortunately sucks when it comes to the climate. He’s great for marketing and probably has the best chances to win but he’s weak when it comes to policy.

        although true, it seems that policy-tweaking is something they’ll both be doing more than a bit of on their way to November

    Yeah, I gotta agree with this, he’s a good governor. And was a good rep.
