No. Listen, if this was a guy people would be calling for lengthy prison time, and rightfully so. Same thing for her. Unless she was delusional she knew children under 1 are not supposed to live on just fruit and nuts.

Janice in accounting is gonna be PISSED.

That sound you heard was the sound of hundreds of auditors reading this piece, finding their career choice vindicated, trying to high five each other, missing badly, and then losing their balance, causing them to trip and fall into Lydia’s workstation and knocking over her Chewbacca bobblehead.

Forbes changed her estimated net worth from $4.5 billion to “nothing.”

It’s pretty easy to write off the civil rights record of a discrimination fighting attorney when you’re a white dude blogger in Manhattan.

I don’t know...considering the Senate may be a 50-50 tie, a proven legislator that is respected on both sides of the aisle might be a good asset to have.

How is it that everyone here seems to think Kaine is unqualified to be president? FFS, out of all the candidates running for P and VP, Kaine is the second-most qualified behind Clinton. Weld probably comes in third, and the rest of them are fucking jokes.

I would argue his Civil Rights record- which he’s spent most of his life working on- is pretty impressive and says a lot about his character but I guess that’s nothing compared to being a blogger

He is seemingly squeaky clean, wife is daughter of Virginia governor who fought for school desegregation. He did missionary work, went to Harvard, has a son who is a marine.

Well now you’re just talking crazy. A record of service only counts if you’re COOL.

I keep seeing people say this, but what can you tell me about Julian Castro other than his current cabinet position and his ethnicity?

Yeah! Why didn’t she pick that qualified elected Democrat who has bold progressive ideas combined with impeccable salesmanship of said ideas, who comes from a useful part of the country electorally, who we already know would be a great candidate in 2024, who despite being a bastion of unapologetic liberalism connects…

Bill has already shown he’s a disaster on the campaign trail. I am dreading what he will be like when he realizes that he’s not the top billing anymore in that marriage. I will always be grateful to Bill Clinton for his economic policies (they enabled us to buy a house long, long ago) but I think he has a real problem…

I think it’s important that Kaine is actually, genuinely, a good person, which is a very sharp contrast with Pence and Trump regardless of their mutual lily whiteness.

It absolutely is, and gawker sites have been ignoring that fact from the beginning. This was a pretty great pick but he wasn’t “exciting” for gawker, whatever the fuck that means.

A minor quibble with one part of the article: Bill has been a disaster as a campaign surrogate this time around.

Doesn’t the guy have an impressive and important civil rights background, above everything else? Isn’t that kind of a helpful thing in this political climate and in the years to come?

Orrrrrrr..... she had to find a VP candidate that wouldn’t outshine her.

So what is he for?
