Minnesota Governor Tim Walz will be the vice presidential running mate for Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, according to multiple news organizations including the Associated Press and New York Times.
The decision to choose Walz is expected to bring back to the Democratic ticket hundred of thousands of people angry over the Israel-Hamas war who voted “uncommitted” in the primaries to express outrage at the Biden administration’s support of Israel in the face of ongoing attacks in Gaza after Oct. 7. The choice also avoids potential controversy over the other leading contender: Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, an observant Jew whose positions on Israel and a two-state solution have resurfaced recently, along with accusations of antisemitism.

The Buzz is Democrats are in a panic over Jewish voters

After tossing Jewish voters overboard to accommodate the Hamas supporters of Dearborn, Michigan,
Democrats are starting to get nervous about the choice they made.
Beginning with Schumer’s delirious speech in the Senate blasting Israel, and various liberal Jewish surrogates, including Rep. Jerry Nadler, vocally opposing the campaign against Hamas, the Democrats did not manage to sell Jews on Biden’s betrayal.
Biden’s declaration that he would stop providing military support to Israel if it continued to pursue Hamas into Rafah touched off a major backlash from mega-donors, like Haim Saban, from celebrities, like Michael Rappaport, who has said he could vote for Trump, in addition to ordinary Jewish donors.
There’s no accurate polling of Jewish voters because there are too few Jews in much of the country to be captured by conventional polls (polls surveying Jews are usually run by simpatico leftist groups), so Democrats have suddenly begun to sweat the Jewish vote.

The Forward, for those who might not know, is a Leftist rag. Saying that not nominating Shapiro “avoids” a controversy is just pathetic. It doesn’t “avoid” it. It capitulates to it - with the one caveat that there’s no way Shapiro could have survived on that ticket without announcing out loud that he had abandoned everything he’s ever said about Israel (except that he hates Bibi, which is the bare minimum required of anyone to be invited into polite company).
My own view is that Waltz is very good news for the continuing project of getting the Jews to remember that, as the original creators of Western Civilization, their natural home is with the Republicans.
Hmm…I wonder who those people are.
The new dance craze!
The Kamala Waltz, starts with the girl on her knees!
LMAO
Where will this run? It seems a lot of these ads only run on right wing outlets. I hope they run far and wide.
HOW MANY BUILDINGS BURNED IN THE BLM RIOTS & HOWE MANY BLACK JOBS WERE POST???
WALZ did NOTHING——
HOW MANY BUILDINGS BURNED IN THE BLM RIOTS & HOW MANY BLACK JOBS WERE LOST???
WALZ did NOTHING——
I won’t do the Harris Walz. (I don’t dance.) ha.
I’m not sure
But I’m going to share it far and wide
Isn’t Walz a pro defund the police, pro bailing out rioters, pro sanctuary state? And wasn’t he at the top of the heap in terms of COVID lockdowns and restrictions, pro vax mandate, pro school closures?
Newsom and all the REAL contenders wanted to leave the door open for a run in 2028
I live in California. I'm not seeing any political ads but I'm hearing a lot of complaints from people who live in Battleground states that it's non-stop Kamala commercials.
Minnesota? If this is true, I’d think this would be great news for republicans. Democrats can have Minnesota. I really hope this is true.
Walz is a safe choice for someone who stands for all the wrong things. He doesn’t stick out on “sensitive” issues like Israel or criminals. He’d be mixed into word salad very easily. So now you have a ticket that appeals to the muzzlimes in one state and anyone else who gets excited by nothingness.
John Hinderaker of Powerline says, Walz "is a far-left ideologue whose character includes not one redeeming quality."
As I understand it, anti-Israel Jews never vote for Republicans anyway so I don’t see how pandering to them helps Harris.
There are many Pro- Israel Jrws who would have stayed with Shapiro but will now stay home orvote for Trump.
