Ackshually... Biden was pretty bad.

A VP candidate should lock up a big state or give you a fighting chance in a battleground

Biden gave you a tiny Dem lock state

VADM James Bond Stockdale (RIP) was a MOH Recipient (and he earned it) and a GREAT American Man.

Show some respect.

He didn't add anything but he didn't cost her any votes either.

He was pretty bad but it’s interesting. Both Hilary and Kamala picked white beta males who are probably both gay. Was it because they didn’t want a strong man to overpower the president?

Do you not remember joe selecting Kamala. It was entirely made by him boxing himself in a corner with stupid random qualifications. It was like a game of guess who and her card was last still on the board

Walz? Oh, he definitely underscored all the things that people loathe about today's Dems.


But Thomas Eagleton deserves a mention, too. Much like Walz Eagleton was lightly vetted after multiple candidates declined. Then it eventually came to light that he had received shock therapy treatments on multiple occasions after depression left him in a near catatonic state. It was in '72 so I don't personally remember it but he was a disaster to what seems decades later an already hapless campaign.

No.

Palin has more common sense than Walz.

Plus she likely knows how to operate the shotgun that Tampon Timmy “supposedly” purchased many years ago. A chimpanzee would’ve looked more competent operating a super computer than he did with “his” shotgun.

Ferraro wasn't bad so much as she was on a ticket doomed to inevitable failure.

I'd say Kaine or Palin was worse.

People barely remember that Kaine was even nominated. Palin suffered from the media making her look dumber than she actually was, but it stuck.


While I think he's bad on policy and dishonest at best, Walz at least came across like your nice neighbor that you don't mind talking to, but you would also run against him for an HOA board seat just because you'd rather he not get it.


ETA: she wasn't a bad pick in terms of knowing what was going to happen with ballot harvesting in 2020, but Harris brought nothing to the ticket outside her skin color and gender.

Admiral James Stockdale would be my pick. He was Perot's running mate in 1992. When a guy introduces himself at the VP debate as "who am I, why am I here", I'm not enthused.
