Given that Tom Perez is under investigation, and my personal choice, Julian Castro, was recently accused of violating the Hatch Act, who did that leave her with? Elizabeth Warren? We need her in the Senate, and even if we didn’t, her replacement would be chosen by a Republican. Ditto Corey Booker.

I know that when I’m hiring someone for my own company, my first inquiry is not “are you competant? Are you qualified?” Instead it’s “are you interesting??”

He is *not* an anti-abortion candidate. He may be personally pro-life but he stands for choice in office. 100% rating from Planned Parenthood, 100% from NARAL.

He also (and people forget this) made it to the final round of vetting FOR OBAMA. And he wasn’t even a Senator then.

I definitely feel like Kaine is in the Biden style of a VP. He’s affable, he’s a fighter, he started out his law career fighting for civil rights and pro bono work. Unlike most of the other options (which seemed likely to backfire [Warren, Booker, Brown, Castro, Franken]), this is one I’m genuinely excited about.…

“Still not an actual liberal. I’m so done with the Democratic Party.”

Just a reminder that back in ‘08, when Obama picked Biden, everyone was like “That boring old white dude?” And now we’re all like UNCLE JOE PLEASE DON’T LEAVE US.

Hey girl.

This is the guy who wanted to force women to have burials for their miscarriages. That is the only sentence about him anyone should need to hear.

It can still be a Squirtle.

“Gotta Catch ‘Em All” doesn’t include plant life, bro.

Uh, bro:

It’s called “stupidity”. It isn’t catching but it is quite prevalent.

I’m still trying to figure out the Gary Johnson pivot. How do you go from “we need to rein in corporate influence” to “we need to not regulate any corporations, ever”?

yes, if I can’t get toy that I want, you won’t get toy that you want

I have tried, but I still can’t understand the “I love Bernie, which means I hate Hillary so much I’ll vote for Trump” process.

What percent of Bernie Sanders supporters will actually listen to Bernie Sanders about this? 10%? 1%? Unicorn%?

For fucks sake. I am trying very hard to relate to law enforcement perspective, but I am quite tired of being told to think about how their families feel not knowing if their loved ones will come back after work, and the stress that creates. It amazes me that they demand this while failing to understand how black…

I was just there!! You don’t want to think that so many guys think that way, and guys always love pointing out that #NOTALLMEN!! But then you read so many gross comments at once, and not many guys correct them or argue with them, and you just feel like locking yourself in your room and never coming out.

I don’t think most of them do. The ones that do appear to have pretty crap relationships.

She hasn’t been bending over to appease him, as far as I can tell. I think she’s played it perfectly - not trashing him at all but pivoting cleanly to focus on Trump. She’s behaving as the presumptive nominee and when he finally does endorse her I’m sure she’ll talk about what an amazing contribution his campaign was…
