It really helps that Donnie's campaign decided that Walz is a libby liberal who libs, which is really easy to counter and advance the weird story:

I can't really describe how happy I am Walz is the pick. It's a night and day difference compared to Shapiro for me, and the fact Harris' team went with Walz rather than the one all the talking heads were saying she had absolutely had to pick is giving me a lot of optimism I haven't felt in a long while.

The DNC is just teeing us up for a massive own-goal. They're going to sweep the election, have a legislative supermajority and the White House, and then they're going to try to reach across the aisle by repealing the 14th Amendment, stacking the courts with Heritage Foundation picks, and giving Israel an SSBN.

The leak was that Kamala didn’t actually make the final decision between Walz and Shapiro until this morning. Since that means the campaign was preparing for both that also explains why there were leaks it was Shapiro.

Tbh, good method to prevent the main leak. Same method Biden did before dropping out - he apparently decided, slept on it, then kept his decision. Also VERY funny that Walz voted *for* the subpoena to hold Eric Holder in contempt for the Fast and Furious scandal, and it was Holder's law firm doing the vetting that ended up with "he's your dude."

Yeah, this is a low-key good sign - it looks like Harris' team didn't leak, and you have to figure there are some disgruntled Shapiro advocates out there. If they can stay unified and disciplined and not get into petty internal disputes then that's a real good sign.

Depending how you want to look at it, Governor is higher. Each state has 2 senators and only 1 governor, and the governor is the chief executive of the state.

Also, James Buchanan was enlisted- a private in the PA Militia in the war of 1812.

I thought about including Buchanan but the question was specifically career NCOs.

Also Buchanan was the worst president in American history so he ranks somewhere above "single term member of the House"

The official (Donnie's) response is that somehow Joe Biden is pissed about all this and will come back at the convention and try to take back the nomination, or so he's heard.

This is like how yesterday was the Kamala Krash, nevermind the bounceback today. Biden's still around! He loves the gently caress out of Tim and is going to campaign for him! Cheddarbraining very strongly.
