I think traveling man has been telling the truth.
I think Penn is full of shit. He’s voting for Harris.
All good, we have less than 100 days, those two bring a real negative energy to me. You have to do what gets you fired up to keep America out of Trumps hands. I can’t stand their shit. We always say “just scroll by”. Fuck em. I’m exercising that. No time for them.

Gosh. I wonder if someone like Penn would look at that chart.
Probably not.

Penn seems to have tunnel vision and sees red if Senator Sanders name is said.

In 1972 McGovern could have picked Walz to be his running mate to move the ticket to the center.

So you don't want him to say things to make the bernie bros happy and more likely to vote? Remember: He's a politician, he's just saying things. He's not a bernie bro, he's just able to appeal to them... on the surface. He's perfect for the here and now, look how giddy cameron is. I can gurantee you that Walz will not champion 95% of what cameron wants him to champion. The most bernie bro like thing he's done is give children free food and that is something you should be on board with. As a parent in michigan also enjoying this benefit, it is freaking awesome and great for the kids. The dude is a moderate that puts on many different hats when he needs to, for the cameras and arenas.
The ‘Blue Walz’: How a low-key Midwestern governor shot to the top to be Harris’ VP pick
I know Bernie supported Walz for VP, but his name curiously doesn't come up at all in this article. Some names I do see, though (emphasis mine):
Walz was propelled by support from across the Democratic Party – progressive and moderate factions alike – in a sophisticated campaign guided by some of the party’s most seasoned operatives. He had former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on his side – old allies from his 12 years in Congress representing a rural Minnesota district – as well as glowing words from former President Barack Obama, who said in a statement Tuesday of Walz, “He has the values and the integrity to make us proud.”
Obama also served as a “sounding board for Vice President Harris to talk through how she was thinking about it,” said one senior aide.
Possible food for thought.
Some more notable stuff:
Asked how he saw his role as VP, Walz said he would perform the job however Harris wanted him to. Asked if he wanted to be the last person in the room before Harris made a decision, Walz said only if she wanted him to be there.
And asked if he had ambitions to run for president himself one day, Walz said he did not, a point that sources said was not lost on a team looking to minimize the potential for any internal drama in a future Harris administration.
Shapiro – who was favored by some of the Democratic Party and anti-Trump Republicans as a more moderate selection – did not go over as well with Harris’ team during his vetting interview, sources familiar with the process told CNN. While Walz came across as deferential and cooperative, Shapiro struck some as overly ambitious, with “a lot of questions” about what the role of the VP would be.

Yeah, Shapiro seems like the heir apparent but I’m not unhappy about Harris not picking him. I don’t want scenario where he feels like he’s the heir to the throne like Hillary did. This probably works out better for Shapiro in the long run. Word on the street is me have even not wanted the spot on the ticket after thinking it through and interviewed accordingly.

It’s going to be Walz unless something tragic occurs.
Shapiro on the ticket could have sealed MI for Trump with the majority of MI 12 not voting for the top of the Democratic ticket.
Tlaib is re-elected, Maybe Slotkin wins the US Senate seat but Trump’s chances of carrying MI increase significantly if the Arab speaking community saw Shapiro as VP
