I Sure Hope ‘Tim Walz’ Works Out For ‘Kamala’. ‘Tim’ Is NOT An Auspicious Name For VPs.

I had never heard of him — & I am a political junkie.

Yes, he wasn’t one of my two picks, BUT that is OK. My wishes only rarely come true.

Yes, I am an acknowledged AGEIST — but I can afford to be. I know, first hand, what age does. That he looks that OLD leads me to believe that he is fond of the ….

AND BINGO …

A DWI conviction just 30 year ago (and I use ‘just’ advisedly). He would have been 30. A bit too old for a DWI (though, of course, I know there is NO age limit for stupidity).

Well, my graphic conveys my current thinking.

I hope this works out.

I Can Live With ‘Josh Shapiro’ (Over Kelly) As VP, BUT Very Unsure/Shaky About ‘Walz’.

Yes, indubitably, ‘Mark Kelly’ is my favorite. But, I understand the dynamics.

I DO count electoral votes. PA has 9 more than AZ! Not that much, but 2024 is going to be tight. Come November 9 electoral votes could make a huge difference.

Plus, I appreciate the midterm election risk in 2026 IF ‘Mark Kelly‘ is VP rather than a senator. This midterm consideration is a bummer. Irks me (no end) BUT I get it. We can’t afford to lose even ONE Senate seat. Wow.

I have also watched Shapiro on TV over the last few days. He is good. Impressive.

Not sure about Walz.

Yes, I will confess I know NOTHING about him. I was SHOCKED, today, to learn that he is only 60-years old! WOW. He looks OLD. I thought he was in his 70s. Not good. He also looks unkempt. His military record is an asset. But?

YIKES!
