I heard from a source that it's going to be Walz

[iemanja]

From someone who knows someone who works in Walz's office. Take it for what you will.

[Gaytano70]

1. I'll take it!

Withholding real celebration until official announcement

[iemanja]

3. That's wise

[Gaytano70]

7. I'm a spaz, I know. Haha

[wishstar]

2. Hope so as he has most experience and virtually no negatives and lots of energy

and normal, not weird. Fingers crossed

[patricia92243]

15. Just had a MAGA tell me Walz negatives - he provided protection for "the gays"

and he legalized marijuana. I would not listen to the rest. I did manage to say liberal equal freedom!

[servermsh]

4. Reporters should look for a secret service detail n/t

[Sogo]

5. Whomever it is, watch for a SS detail outside their home/office....

That will happen even before an announcement....

At least that was the case for the Rs.

[bucolic_frolic]

6. I think his folksy, quick-witted, no-nonsense demeanor is genuine

and that's why I think he's the best choice. He will carry the platform best.

[liberalmuse]

8. The younger kids love this guy.

Which surprised me because I thought they’d want someone younger, though Walz only appears older. I didn’t know anything about him but watched him speak and was an instant fan. He has very wide appeal across many demographics. That being said, I’m fully behind whomever VP Harris and her team decide.

[GPV]

9. He was a coach and teacher. He knows kids. :)

[Native]

12. Sanders had massive appeal to young voters

[liberalmuse]

17. I should've remembered this! n/t

[obamanut2012]

22. He posts videos he and his daughter make

Of riding the Slingshot at the State Fair,e tc. are very popular And, he is very serious, but also folksy, and like all of us older GenXers, he likes to run around in jeans, Springsteen tshirts, and sneakers.

He also is a DC insider, and his voting record was moderate-liberal, served in the National Guard as a non-com, retired teacher, likes the LGBT+ folks, pro weed. Very pro worker, including blue collar and pink collar. Knows how to cook a hotdish.

Also, his Lt Gov is Native, so that would eb cool is she steps in as Gov!

[iemanja]

24. I think you mean he isn't a DC insider

[obamanut2012]

30. No, he served in Congress for 12 years

He is friends with many still in Congress, including Dem leadership, including Biden.

He is an insider. And is not one, but I think it's disingenuous to say he isn't.

[iemanja]

34. Oh, right

From MN-01. point taken.

[WhiteTara]

31. Actually, he has many friends and acquaintances

in Congress as he served in the House as well.

[Emile]

10. I hope you're right.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

11. If true, Tim will do GREAT!

Not easily intimidated. In fact, I feel sorry for JD. Going up against Tim Walz record for record. JD will be the one looking stupid.

One thing one does not do....go up against a Command Sargent Major wirh the intention of intimidation. What Tim did to Gil Gutknecht in 2006, and to every Republican he ran against, he
cleaned their clocks with FACTS. JD Vance and Trump will be no different.

[Tadpole Raisin]

27. You know that's one thing I didn't think about - that they

Would probably get all his debates and see how quick he was on his feet.

I did like the safe driver video with his daughter Hope (via IVF so he’s got that covered).

‘CUT!’ It was hysterical.

[kcr]

13. Oh I hope so!

[ALBliberal]

14. Perfect to lead charge against gun violence

I’m happy with whomever she chooses though. They are each strong in their own right.

[liberalmediaaddict]

16. Exciting story to follow

Dan Pfeiffer pointed out recently that nobody has a clue who Harris will pick until she officially announces it. She could change her mind at the last minute which is her right as the nominee.

Her strategists probably have 6 different speeches ready to go for each potential VP pick.

[iemanja]

18. Lol

We'll find out soon enough.

[Lonestarblue]

20. I had a fund-raising email from Shapiro about an hour ago about how he will be working for Pennsylvania.

That my mean nothing or it may be that he has not been chosen.

[WhiteTara]

32. Kelly made a similar statement

[Walleye]

21. Yep. Those who know aren't talking, and those who are talking don't know. It's kind of fun though.

[JI7]

29. But she has to ask the person before announcing it

and get their acceptance. I know it would be just a formality as those in consideration at this point are already going to say yes. But I can't see her announcing without letting the person know plus there is there issue with secret service.

[Nanjeanne]

40. It's been reported she asked and was answered and announcement will be tomorrow.

[JI7]

41. I'm responding to the post saying

that nobody has a clue until Harris officially announces it and that she can even change her mind.

[JI7]

19. I look forward to him destroying Vance in a debate

[Midnight Writer]

23. Works for me.

[BWdem4life]

25. Well that's pretty much ironclad then ;)

I hope it is Walz. We shall see

[Qutzupalotl]

26. Good choice, solid pick. I'm all in.

All her options were good, but Walz might be the best. Seems to be instantly likable, down to earth, popular. The opposite of weird.

[Think. Again.]

28. I really like all the contenders....

What a great 4 years we're gonna have!!!

[aeromanKC]

33. Kamala deserves better

If true, shame on that staffer for leaking this news. C'mon man!!

[List left]

35. Hands-Free Driving with Governor Walz & his daughter Hope

[Rob H.]

36. I hope it's Walz

I don't know how much more suspense I can take, though.

[servermsh]

37. Is this the twittier account of Kevin Munoz?

FYI, he says no choice has been made yet.

Link to tweet

[moonscape]

38. Not believing this. No

decision but has to announce tomorrow?

[iemanja]

43. No, not twitter

[servermsh]

44. Sorry, I was referring to my own post. :)

My use of "this" was a little vague.

[moonscape]

39. Fingers crossed. 🤞🤞🤞

[iemanja]

46. I've come around to favoring him

but whomever Harris chooses is fine with me.

[Sky Jewels]

42. I sure hope so!

Trying not to get my hopes too high though.

[Emile]

45. That will make my Midwest family happy.

[iemanja]

47. Ahummm

[MsLeopard]

48. You were so right!

And I’m so happy about it I’m about to go dance in the street!
