    Walz is a low risk, medium reward pick. Shapiro is reverse. Can’t win the Presidency without Pennsylvania. I think the jabber that the far left came up with regarding Shapiro is shameful and embarrassing, but the choice is made and it’s time to move forward.

        Shapiro was high risk and high reward. Now that the decision has been made, I hope you can cheer for the Philly ward ladies to deliver Pennsylvania.

      I don’t think Shapiro guarantees PA. His approval is good, but it’s not crazy high like Beshear. And his vulnerabilities make him too risky of a pick, you don’t want to halt the positive momentum and alienate the young voters you have finally gotten energised.

        Not that it matters, but the political tactics in Pennsylvania are a bit different. Shapiro’s popularity in rural communities would be quite beneficial.

      Yeah, but you celebrate the genocide. I know you post a lot so the arguments between us from months ago will be far back in the history, but there is nothing surprising about someone who justifies genocide siding with the candidate who served in the military that is currently committing genocide.

          I don’t need to try again, but when you post seemingly innocuous opinions that tangentially touch on your support for genocide without referencing it, and I see it, I will post so that others will know that they are interacting with something posted by someone that supports genocide.

      I think you’ll be surprised by the number of surprise states going blue for this election. A lot has happened since 2020 on Trump’s side, and none of it has been good.
