    Sounds like a great guy who would do well, but is needed in his state more than as VP.

      Katie Porter isn’t doing anything now that she lost her Senate bid to Schiff, and has made some fans even in conservative circles for her whiteboard explanations and takedowns of pharma CEOs and pentagon overspending.

      I know a bunch of people say Kamala needs a white man for VP, but I’m not sure that tracks logically, sexists aren’t going to suddenly be okay with a woman just because she has a man as VP.

      I go back and forth on Raphael Warnock for the same reason. He’s definitely needed in Georgia, but wouldn’t it be great for a presidential candidate to be able to say the last person they talk to before any major decision as president will be a pastor?

      Honestly, we’ll manage just fine with Peggy Flanagan. She’s pretty great too.
