Maybe a mistake, maybe not. He is a good choice in that he served in the National Guard for 24 years and taught high school. He didn't enter politics until 2006. He doesn't have any baggage that I know of. He is well-liked and relates to voters well.
He is unknown to most people is a weakness. He is well-liked in his state with a 54% favorability rating. the question is, can he help bring the blue wall states over to Harris, I do not know.
I think Shapiro would have been a better choice for solidifying the blue wall states, but maybe something convinced her and her advisors that Waltz was a better choice.
I think he may be too liberal and she gave in to the more progressive Democrats in choosing him. She had been trying to move more center since becoming the candidate, this seems to move her back left.

My FB feed will be slam full of people parroting "he's already pulled in millions of dirty cash to buy the White House"

I really don't know enough about Walz to comment yet. Seems to be somewhat of a centrist learning to the left. We'll know more in the next few days.

Q up the Soviet national anthem. 👍 She was further left than Bernie in the senate voting Walz also leans heavy left on his views. But it’s important to note, it’s not trump. Damn the country but at least it’s not Orangeman.

Dems must think they can win Pennsylvania without Shapiro.

Dems must think they can win Pennsylvania without Shapiro. I think they were more worried about losing Michigan.
