Walz is exactly what a democratic “moderate” should be
He might be further to the right than some want, but when they say that. Dude sits down and listens to them and is willing to change his mind.
I don’t think he’ll specifically pull Kamala to the left. But I think if the base disagrees with Kamala, he’ll push for her to listen to what they have to say and to keep an open mind.
It’s kind of depressing that’s such a unique thing, but it’s good it’s happening and I hope it signals a change for the moderate wing.
I don’t think we’d have gotten someone like that if people weren’t vocal about their issues with Biden and his responses. Which is why I think it’s important we keep it up. If the only people pushing for “moderates” to change direction are from the right, we can’t act surprised when they always move right.
We dont have billionaires lobbying for us, we got to make the noise ourselves.
which is why the walz VP pick is interesting. he seems to spend political capital quickly and effectively
its going to be clear early on how much influence progressives really have in a potential harris administration.
