Governors Roy Cooper of North Carolina and Andy Beshear of Kentucky — directly overlapped with Ms. Harris as attorneys general. Now-Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania came into the job as she was leaving her post, and as Mr. Trump entered the White House.

I would not call any of those choices terrific. And the last thing North Carolina or Kentucky needs is to lose their Democratic governor.

Also, I think a ticket with two women on it would be a better answer. Choose Warren or Ocasio-Cortez. There are other options too.

So you want Harris to lose?

I agree, as much as I'd love for that to be the America we live in, it's not.

Beshear just won re-election last year, so he's term limited. His political career in KY is effectively over and with how shit our legislature is, as governor he's essentially powerless anyway. However, I don't think he'll get the nomination- while he's (relatively) popular in KY, he's not gonna turn KY blue for Kamala. I feel that Kelly or Shapiro are better, more strategic options, since getting AZ and PA are far more likely and necessary than trying to win KY.

As a Minnesotan, I don't want to lose Governor Walz.

But he is a top-tier pick in my opinion.

Oh there's a GOVERNOR Walz! I was wondering why they wanted to make Christoph Waltz from Inglorious Basterds VP 😁
