Kamala may have been forced to settle for Walz.
It was highly predictable, but once Kamala Harris announced that Minnesota governor Tim Walz (who?) was her choice for vice president, adoration and enthusiasm poured forth from all the usual quarters.
You may know that it was Walz, in one of his ubiquitous appearances on MSNBC, who called his now-GOP counterpart JD Vance “weird.”

As a senator, Kamala Harris co-sponsored legislation that would have created a “Reparations Commission” similar to the one in California that recommended that each black person in the state receive $1.2 million.
Kamala Harris has chosen Minnesota’s progressive governor Tim Walz as her running mate to take on Donald Trump and J.D. Vance after weeks of speculation and a bitter fight between candidates.
The 60-year-old father-of-two, who has been married to his teacher wife Gwen since 1994, joins the ticket in a victory for the progressive left of the party who were concerned about some of the other contenders’ support of Israel.
In Minnesota he has codified the right to abortion, signed universal free school meals, legalized recreational marijuana and gave voting rights to former prisoners.
Welcome to the race, Tim Walz!
Let’s make sure America knows who you are.
You helped ignite the George Floyd riots, the worst the country had seen in decades. While Minneapolis burned, you stalled on deploying the National Guard for an entire day, blaming the city for not…

Kamala can’t be trusted off script.
The basement campaign has been updated.
Kamala Harris isn’t in the cellar of the Naval Observatory campaigning via Zoom calls à la Joe Biden in 2020.
No, she’s speaking to adoring crowds fired up by pop stars. She’s identifying herself with powerful (if somewhat esoteric) cultural trends. She’s clapping back against Donald Trump with panache.
Looks like Trump's play is working. https://t.co/30wif0ZNSG

Watch early on for Joe falling asleep while standing up!

The easiest job in American politics must be serving as a communications staffer for Democratic politicians. The media do your job for you every day.
There is no position that Kamala Harris supports now that she won’t oppose later should it prove politically advantageous.
This is good for Democrats and bad for Republicans.
It’s bad for Republicans because, as it turns out, it’s a slippery thing, campaigning against Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
CNN anchor Michael Smerconish called black men who felt Kamala Harris is not really black ‘low information voters.’
During his show on Saturday, Smerconish played a clip from CBS affiliate WHP filmed at a central Pennsylvania barber shop late last month asking black men what they thought about the vice president.
In the clip, a local journalist was speaking to black men at a barber shop when some said the didn’t think Harris was black.
"Some describe them as low information voters, no different that what you find among whites."

Harris isn’t a carbon copy of her leftist academic dad. But it’d be a stretch to deny at least some similarities.
While campaigning this past week, Senator JD Vance of Ohio called Vice President Kamala Harris a “phony” who “grew up in Canada,” as former President Donald J. Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, continued raising false and incendiary questions about the presumed Democratic nominee’s racial identity.
“Kamala Harris grew up in Canada,” Mr. Vance said during a campaign stop in Arizona on Wednesday. “They don’t talk like that in Vancouver or Quebec or wherever she came from.”
Kamala is a proven liar. She was a self declared Indian until being Black was better even suddenly acquiring a “Black accent” at her recent Atlanta embarrassment.
I think the author is hoping for a BJ.
Communism, Marxism, progressivism, and “prosecutorial pragmatism” are all on the table.
Kamala Harris’s campaign is in its infancy. If you spend your days browsing the internet and dissecting articles about politics, though, it may feel like quite a bit longer.
At this point, her opponents have already started digging out the skeletons and airing the dirty laundry. There’s the affair that launched her political career, her antisemitism problem, her performance first as California’s attorney general and then as a member of the Senate, and a plethora of radical statements over the years about issues like healthcare and immigration.
Kamala Harris’s husband’s first marriage ended after he got his children’s nanny pregnant, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.
Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff cheated on his first wife Kerstin with the blonde nanny, who also taught at their children’s pricey private school.
The woman, Najen Naylor, 47, did not deny the story when approached by DailyMail.com at her home in the New York millionaires’ playground, The Hamptons.
Then-Sen. Kamala Harris warned Americans not to say “Merry Christmas” until there was permanent status for some illegal immigrants — amid a Trump-era battle over protections for some illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children.
“And when we all sing happy tunes, and sing Merry Christmas, and wish each other Merry Christmas, these children are not going to have a Merry Christmas. How dare we speak Merry Christmas. How dare we? They will not have a Merry Christmas,” she said at a 2017 press conference, a video of which was obtained by Fox News Digital.
Kamala Harris has always had trouble keeping staff based on her nasty, bullying, personality, but she sure does well with people who talk like this in her tree.
“Will Doug Emhoff’s Legal Career Be an Issue for the Biden-Harris Ticket?” the New York Times asked four years ago.
The newspaper noted that Emhoff, the husband of Kamala Harris, was a partner at DLA Piper whose “lobbying clients” had included the governments of Afghanistan and Bahrain, as well as the Qatari government-funded Al Jazeera Network and the Palestine Monetary Authority.
Political And Religious Conservatives Had Better Face A Stark Possibility
If you are a conservative like me, you are finding yourself standing here wondering how on earth Kamala Harris is doing so well against Donald Trump. Unless you were born two weeks ago, you are old enough to remember a time when Harris was widely considered to be a bad joke. She had very high unfavorable ratings, and she was known chiefly for two things: 1) her unintentionally hilarious word salads, and 2) failing at the one task Biden assigned her — fixing the border.
