    Pete doesn’t actually get things done, and he’s a PMC McKinsey dud… Nothing wrong with who he loves, he’s just a real bummer as a politician.

    Also there’s a reason the VP shortlist are milquetoast white males… Grandma in Ohio might be able to vote for a woman of color, but these frightened bigots need a “safe” feeling backup plan in VP. Win the battle, take the win if Kamala can break that barrier. She wouldn’t be my first choice generally, but she has the momentum and now seems like the time. I’m supporting her full speed

      Pete doesn’t actually get things done

      He gets things done for his constituency, which is the network of business lobbyists that power his presidential ambitions. He’s an excellent resource for BNSF and Union Pacific. He’s a valuable asset for Boeing and FedEx. He’s just no good if you’re riding Amtrack or stuck in an airport at 2am waiting for JetBlue to get its shit together.
