2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)I'm still voting for her-- but don't expect me to be enthused with this VP pick [View all]
Sorry...I think once again this is a play it safe move and snubbing the liberal base. She had options. Again, don't get me wrong, I'm still voting for her, but I'm not going to be posting happy flappy posts about how excited I am about this ticket.
Hillary made her pick. She wants me to get excited about it...her campaign's got a lot of work to do.

He's not going to be imposing his views on Hillary or trying to change the platform.
