Thoughts on Gov Walz Democratic road show, apologizing for not ‘getting it done’

[Anonymous]

He also implies Harris wouldn’t let him talk much during their campaign, and that she avoided reporters

Did Harris mess up?

Is Walz an answer for 2028? He says he’s not necessarily running but wants to be there helping get the next Dem elected.

Thoughts? Anyone have a gift link to share here? I’m out

I don’t think anyone is opposed to Walz 2028.

But, who would be his VP pick?

This shows Walz is weak, not someone strong enough to be in the President’s chair.

I don't see the point in tearing Harris down. Spend that time on taco.

GOP would love that!

No one cares.

Nothing has screwed the Democrats more than worrying about what children think. We can’t parent them forever.

I've watched a few of his road show locations and it was interesting to learn how much he was reigned in and tempered down.

It's pretty obvious that Harris didn't want someone who would outshine her. I don't know how much of that can be attributed to her condensed, haphazard, short campaign after Biden withdrew.

I don't think Waltz is a Presidential pick, though. He has great side-kick energy and I think he could really help the 2028 candidate as the VP pick.

IMO, the Ossoff/Buttigieg ticket should be the Dems pick for 2028. More people need to be paying attention to Ossoff. He's a fantastic speaker, very charismatic, and can relate to the common people.

Hope he is top of the ticket.

He was doing pretty well before the Democratic consultants got involved. After that the campaign seemed dorky and contrived.

Whoever runs, just let them run.

Well said, I agree with this.

Don't agree. That's the role of the VP.

A Jewish guy and a gay guy? Too much. Pick one or the other.

Buttigeig needs to be on the ticket to protect trans kids.

Same. We really missed out not having this nice person in office.

I cannot stand Buttigieg as a choice. He’s fine but a typical political phony
