There has been a good deal of speculation about how and why Kamala Harris chose Tim Walz for her running mate. There were the usual criteria of course—compatibility, comfort, geography, potential electoral impact, and resumé—all which certainly figured in the decision. The real question, however, became why Minnesota governor Tim Walz was finally selected over the prohibitive favorite, Pennsylvania governor and rising party star, Josh Shapiro.
Absolutely loved it when Walz made the subtle couch joke during the Philadelphia rally. If you know, you know. A lot of us were mighty tired of "going high" while they went lower and lower, and it's hilarious to see the MAGA folks clutching their pearls over the Dems' fun little memes. Meanwhile, Trump apparently thinks referring to VP Harris as "Kamabla" is the height of humor.
This is not to say Harris will win...too soon for that. But the desperation among the Trump folks is palpable, and when you try too hard, you usually just make things worse.

Great. Informative, funny and enlightening… keep the ball rolling!
Thanks. It's a whole lot more fun writing these pieces now.
