Vice President
-
I was wondering about that Jon. From the photos I'd seen before yesterday, I assumed he was well into his 70s but then watching the videos above I was like I think he's a lot younger than that -- his skin is pretty young looking but his stark white hair and bald head aren't doing him any favors (that said, I so VERY MUCH appreciate that he's going with what he's got instead of whatever that awful hairdye / combover combo is that the other side has going on, LOL!) . I still haven't looked up how old he really is, but he seems like an awesome guy....and if he's young enough to run for president after Kamala, even better!!!!

James Carville's take. Pithy, as usual!

Walz, in his first appearance Tuesday night as Harris’s running mate, came out swinging against the Republican ticket, taking aim especially at his vice presidential rival, Vance.
“I just have to say it. You know it. You feel it. These guys are creepy and, yes, just weird as hell. That’s what you see,” Walz said to raucous applause from the rally crowd in Philadelphia, using the viral new framing of the Trump campaign as “weird.”
“Like all regular people I grew up with in the heartland, JD studied at Yale, had his career funded by Silicon Valley billionaires, and then wrote a bestseller trashing that community. Come on! That’s not what middle America is,” Walz said, adding that he “can’t wait to debate the guy.”

GOP attacks on Walz’s military service echo ‘swift-boating’ of Kerry two decades ago. Democrats say they’ve learned since.
Now, with the first military veteran on the Democratic presidential ticket since Kerry, that tactic is resurfacing. And it’s being led by Republican Donald Trump’s campaign and its chief, who was a key part of the 2004 attacks on Kerry.

Wait - which candidate had “bone spurs”?
Its an odd - dare I say weird? - angle of attack.

Exactly. And they’re trashing the service record of a guy who served for 20 years?
Remarkable.
