Kaine lacks experience and Clinton has the experience you wish she lacked.

Kaine is pro TPP. Bernie supporters will sit out.

Kaine is white. Hillary will have the minority turnout that Kerry did. Not the Obama turnout.

Kaine is boring. Independents won’t care.

Only the worst of the scum and a sadistic idiot will accept her VP offer.

Kaine is a paper champion.

He does have that very exciting eye brow that wiggles around like a caterpillar.

I thought the headline read, “VP Hearse.” Which would be appropriate.

This is the classic “trial balloon” to guage public reaction to a possible candidate.

May I suggest a possible slogan for the new “team”: “Keep Kaining them until morale improves!”

This would make sense for Hillary. Like Trump, she needs someone to smooth out her rough edges. Caine has a Pence-like calm and humility about him. I’m not voting for them, but I can understand the choice. If Liawhatha were chosen, the ticket would be too strongly negative, and shrill to appeal very broadly. No pun intended with the word ‘broadly’.

Manafort was just on Hannity stating they would be campaigning in Virginia next week and that Trump had pulled ahead there. Sounds like he is baiting the briar patch to me.

Some FReeper suggested that they could be referred to as “Kaine and Unable”. Apologies for not recalling who to credit for that.

Good points.

Only someone totally indecent would accept her VP offer.
