She picked Tim

[Anonymous]

The way he told his story of IVF (which he only made public recently) and that he named his daughter Hope as a result really got me caught up.

He seems so real and relatable. Like someone who actually cares and cares about serving the public.

Did January 6th not happen? I don't understand how GOP are so concerned about some riots and not others. It's weird.

Bingo

All riots should be equally disdained regardless of the issue behind it because more often than not it's some nut job extremist thugs who don't actually care about the issue behind it....but as such should also be equally prosecuted and equally thought of as wrong regardless of the issue. It's never ok to destroy property regardless of the issue or topic period.

I agree. I read an article about The riots in MN and poor reaction time. Walz was very honest about it all and how it was not handled well. Now contrast that with Trump who still thinks January 6th was a good thing.

True - but I also know many Dems who think the BLM riots were a good thing too.

Dems supported the peaceful protests and criticized where the looting and property damage took place.

Well I'll rephrase,"I have personally spoken to more than one Dem who feels the looting and property damage was justified". But we are going off-topic now. Back to Tim Walz....honestly...I don't care how he reacted to the BLM riots because it was an extremely difficult time. I also don't care about anything he did or didn't do 20 yrs ago. I do care about his political views and social ideology which are too progressive for my taste. Not saying it's going to make me vote for Trump but I am now strongly considering staying home...and this is coming from someone who was pushing their DD to go out and vote because of the importance of voting - DD doesn't care to vote this year either. I can see her point of view.

You cite a ton of right wing talking points and misrepresentations (no one takes you seriously when your argument is a strawman), but I think you should have read the article you posted before spouting off about “teaching gender ideology” and from a “news” outlet in Austin, TX owned by Sinclair. But even they were able to sneak in the fact that it’s not teaching gender ideology but respecting all students, including the ones who were being bullied for being gay. So you want gay kids to get bullied? That’s essentially what you said.

And to try to pull some grapes out of your cornucopia of misled: that was an Osseo, MN policy, not a state wide one. Good lord. You are bad at this, “independent.”

This was just one point in response to someone who asked "What ideology do you find too progressive?" And I stand by my post - this is one area that I find too progressive/liberal. But I am also pro-LGBTQ rights -- it's something the progressive/liberal left can't seem to comprehend which is so frustrating -- you can support LGBTQ rights but also disagree with certain specific issues. The all-or-nothing attitude of the left is tiresome. Just as tiresome as the all-or-nothing attitude of the right when it comes to abortion. Same thing.

DP. Well said. This is how I feel, too. So sick of the extremes.

The forgotten middle.
The middle children of the country if you will.

Well said indeed.

Well, Harris acknowledges you with this pick.

No she didn't.
I'm still likely to vote for her given I can't tolerate Trump.
But I will also likely to vote more right leaning down ballot to keep things somewhat balanced.

The Democrats have bent over backwards to be right leaning (Biden, Clinton, Kaine, Lieberman, Gore, Obama, Kerry… these are not far left people); the same is never asked of the GOP. Not ever. Voters like you never ask that the GOP move left. You should ask yourself why you don’t think they should moderate.

I have in my lifetime voted for both Democrats and Republicans.
I vote for who at the time I feel is best for the country overall, best represents the views of the country and best reflects my personal views.

I think both parties are invested in playing to the extremes and not really listening to what people actually want.

Ah, BoThSiDeS.

This is who you have telling you what to think?

lol-is that who he is? That guy is dumb as rocks. If that’s the conservative thought leader, the GOP is in even more trouble than I thought

Well, he's no Ben Shapiro

Have you ever listened to Ben Shapiro? You may not like what he has to say, but he’s very bright. And quite sharp.

He's a dumb person's idea of a smart person. Also, he looks funny. Head down, constantly bobbing.

I think Harvard Law probably disagrees with you. As would UCLA and Phi Beta Kappa. Where did you go to school?

Like Walz, I went to a state college. I'm all for a good education, but book learning isn't everything.

NP. It's always funny to see the party that decries elitism constantly fall back in Ivy credentials, like Harvard has never produced a dumb person.

He graduated summa cum laude from UCLA. But keep trying.

I'm just surprised to see the party that claims to represent the working class so impressed by Latin honors and prestigious degrees. Personally, I don't put much stock in them. I listen to what a man has to say and judge him by that. Shapiro has never impressed me. Good grades are never going to convince me to ignore what my eyes see and my ears hear.

It’s fine to disagree with him. But dismissing him by calling him dumb and stupid is disingenuous. He is neither.

Well, the good news is I don't need permission from you, Harvard Law, or UCLA to call people dumb when they seem dumb. He's either dumb or he plays dumb very well. You keep worshipping those credentials though.

You don’t need permission, of course. But it’s laughable that you think you can judge his intelligence better than Harvard. Or UCLA. Or Phi Beta Kappa. What do they call that? The arrogance of ignorance? Or something like that.

NP. If you think someone is smart solely because they went to Harvard or were in a certain frat, you are not smart.

Not PP but follow their sentiments...honestly, I have stated many times that the GOP needs to move to the center on the topic of abortion -- Roe v. Wade should never have been overturned. I voted for Trump in 2016 then Biden in 2020.
Medically necessary abortions should simply be treated as a medical procedures between patient and doctor. The GOP has lost their way by giving in to the far-right extremists.

DP. Well said. This is how I feel, too. So sick of the extremes.

The forgotten middle.
The middle children of the country if you will.

Well said indeed.

Well, Harris acknowledges you with this pick.

No she didn't.
I'm still likely to vote for her given I can't tolerate Trump.
But I will also likely to vote more right leaning down ballot to keep things somewhat balanced.

The Democrats have bent over backwards to be right leaning (Biden, Clinton, Kaine, Lieberman, Gore, Obama, Kerry… these are not far left people); the same is never asked of the GOP. Not ever. Voters like you never ask that the GOP move left. You should ask yourself why you don’t think they should moderate.

I have in my lifetime voted for both Democrats and Republicans.
I vote for who at the time I feel is best for the country overall, best represents the views of the country and best reflects my personal views.

I think both parties are invested in playing to the extremes and not really listening to what people actually want.

Not the state but they will definitely win the 2nd Congressional District. And maybe the 3rd?
