    Kelly is such an obvious home run pic I don’t even know why they’re discussing it. I guess the only issue is maybe his senate seat.

      His seat isn’t going anywhere. AZ law requires another Dem to be appointed by the Governor for the remainder of the term, 2 more years for his seat. And the AZ Governor is a Dem, they aren’t going to find a fake Dem to replace Kelly and try to steal the seat.

        I think the issue is about the seat after 2 years. Might be harder to keep the seat with Mark or if that race. That said he is my to vp pick and possible future president candidate. I hope he gets it.

      I was big on Kelly but recently seeing Waltz as a better pick. Waltz has a stronger record on labor and could help capture blue-collar voters in the Midwest. Plus he’s gone on Fox News to call out Trump.

      I don’t know much about him, but if you’re right, maybe they’re worried he will be too much candidate for VP? Like everyone will start thinking the roles should be reversed? If I were working for the Trump campaign, and Harris picked a home-run VP with no obvious flaws to pick on, that’s how I would spin it. We’ve already had the nominee drop out, so anything goes. Sow rumors of discontent among “anonymous party leaders” calling for Harris to step aside for a better candidate.

      Mark Kelly the corporate Democrat? He might help a bit in AZ but he’ll lower turnout elsewhere.

    Whitmer appears to be campaigning with Shapiro.

    It’s narrowing but also expanding with talk about Malz’s stock rising
