I just don't think a woman of color and a gay guy would have worked quite yet.

Neither do I, I just can't contain my frustration with that being a self fulfilling prophecy - a self inflicted wound. Seems to me like the only thing standing between us and not getting stabbed in the gut is our deciding to stop doing it..and not just once, deciding to stop doing it over and over reflexively.
We know what we can get from putting up guys we think the seditionists might not totally hate. This, we get this.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Balancing the ticket is a calculus of how to win. The predictable outcome of deiberately not making that calculus is losing more and giving your opponents more power.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
In some fair and ideal system, maybe - but in our system, the outcome of that calculus is giving them more power even when they lose.

My ideal ticket would be a chimpanzee holding a bunny by it's neck and beating it against the debate floor until it's dead while throwing feces at the audience. That would be no less appropriate and much more policy substantive than fully half of the candidates running. Maybe..just maybe, if Monkeys Killing Bunnys makes it all the way to the white house we can drop some of the nonsense and pretense we have, as americans, about our elections. If people saw the farce for what it was..truly..and not just the other guys shit...that would be change I could believe in. Then again, I'm not a dem. (though I do think that, as a practical matter of defeating race obsessed fascists, it's best to cross all of their lines as hard as possible and call them chumps while you do it - so go for broke. A transgender inuit latino whose grandparents emigrated from nicaruaga aaaaand [insert next maga trigger here] - what are they gonna do..stand up there and show the world their whole ass all the time and make themselves even more repellent than the body public already finds them? Start a war?)

Republicans Resurface Tim Walz’ 1995 Mugshot as Attacks Heat Up
Quote: Tim Walz’ mugshot from a 1995 DUI arrest went viral Tuesday just as Kamala Harris announced the Minnesota governor was joining her presidential ticket. https://www.thedailybeast.com/tim-walz-o...-vp-ticket I wonder how many of the people who keep bringing this up actually care about how around the same time Tim Walz got his DUI, Donald Trump was busy sexually assaulting E. Jean Carroll. Just saying, it’d be a lot easier for this to hurt the Dems’ campaign if the other team’s presidential candidate hasn’t been found guilty of much worse crimes.

Right, because Walz will push a white supremacist agenda, because he's an old white male VP with the power to rule it all. |
