I really like Andy Beshear, the current governor of Kentucky. He would present himself as a nice complement to Harris and a nice countervailing force to Vance. I’d also be fine with J.B. Pritzker and Gretchen Whitmer. The most realistic pick, however, is probably Roy Cooper because of his current working relationships with Biden/Harris and because of the perception of North Carolina as a key Southern swing state. FYI…progressives will NOT support Josh Shapiro (genocide apologist), James Stavridis (imperialist), or Mark Kelly (anti-labor). Harris can’t win the “northern blue firewall” (Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania) without sufficient support from progressives, and a practical path to 270 EC votes becomes too difficult for the Democratic Party without all three of those states. So it’s perfectly reasonable to think of progressives as the power brokers of 2024. Whether or not Bernie, Jayapal, and The Squad are willing to utilize this power to actually influence Kamala’s policy agenda is another matter altogether. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I can't agree with doubling down on the progressive side. Ever since Trump took over the Republican Party the middle has been wide open. Progressives will turn out; Trump as the candidate assures that. The key is convincing the very small percentage of voters in the middle (and on the RFK "a pox on both their houses" fringe) that the Democrats won't tack wildly to the left. The Governors and Kelly help there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K D Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Just now, B-Man said: I hope it's Bootyjuice. Let's see how progressive the left really is. Would they elect an Indian/Jamaican communist woman plus a gay man? I've been talking to family members who are anti Trump but were already likely not voting for Kamala let alone a homosexual. I personally don't care but I know many potential voters do even if they hate Trump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete is sharp, clear, smart, and a great contrast to the new-style JD Vance. And Vance actually has less relevant experience than Pete. But I just don't think it'll work.

Yeah, if Pete weren't gay he might already be front runner. Sad but true imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shapiro just makes too much sense and I'd be shocked if he wasn't the pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
