It clarifies quite a bit. 2) My First Shirt at Vandenberg was the coolest SNCO (who was also an instructor in basic) that I'd ever met. Never once would I have considered referring to him as something else other than 'First Shirt'.

I heard an interview with Jake Tapper and some VP Harris surrogate about the decision. Apparently in the interview for VP, Shapiro was making demands and I quote “giving off main character energy” to the point that Harris was turned off. Walz apparently was just saying he’d love to do good for the country with her. Seems like Shapiro doesn’t know how to turn off his ambition and play second fiddle. He must have missed that upgrade in the Democratic position factory, since even Buttigeig can play support.

On one hand, VP is the shortcut to nomination for President. On the other, it's 4-8 years of going to all the events that are too unimportant for the President to deal with.

I am actually relieved that Shapiro is gonna stay governor for a while. I've spent enough time in the state house to know he is at least keeping that system stable. I've heard some heinous poo poo in there. The republican base tried real hard once Wolfe hit term limits and they've mostly shut up since publicly.

The UAW and lots of other unions are Shapiro-skeptics because of the school vouchers, while Walz has walked picket lines. That kind of thing will break a tie.

Hey gang, so I went back to the Bad Site(TM) instead of Bluesky to see how they were reacting and laughed at the current attack against Walz' service. Apparently because he retired at 24 YOS instead of going to Iraq, that makes him a loser and abandoning his folks. I've had to explain to relative and non-military folks that everyone in the service, short of your Grace Hoppers or Hyman Rickovers, is replaceable usually have a close enough replacement stepup and get the job done

I know it's only been a day, but I think Harris fuckin' nailed the pick. Donnie "Late Great Hannibal Lecter" Trump and JD "Project 2025" Vance exude creepy/weird vibes that are an absolute turnoff to suburban normie types. Kamala/Walz have normie-enough vibes that they're absolutely willing to jettison any "too liberal" concerns. Especially when Kamala/Walz can spin the "too liberal" stuff as poo poo people are in agreement with (school breakfast/lunch, LGBT+ rights, abortion rights, telling the creepy pregnancy surveiller to go gently caress themself). I don't think Donnie's band of fuckers has the skill to turn the prosecutor into a commie and the hunter into a socialist. They've been huffing their own farts for too long, they don't know how to speak normie anymore. To some extent, neither do the major papers spinning Walz as the "Kamala didn't go to the center" pick. They weren't listening to tonight's speeches - they're aimed at those center/rural/suburban voters that just need permission to finally go "these fuckers are weird".
