Clinton needs to pick Cory Booker. Tells Sanders that socialism isn't the answer, keeps up AA turnout, helps keep Hillary away from the D senate she can't be trusted with.

Clinton promises that there will be no leaks of her VP choice before she sends out the notification texts:



Freedom campaign! VP leaks betray supporters and take away the fundamental appeal of the announcement event. Leaking the VP pick makes one unqualified to work on a presidential campaign.

Kaine isn't my first pick, but he's completely acceptable. Experienced, Moderate, maybe worth a half point or point in Virginia.

Note that if Kaine is picked, then McAuliffe picks his replacement in the Senate, but that person then faces a special election in just a year's time (November 2017).  Will McAuliffe be able to find someone who'd be favored to win that election in an odd-numbered year?


At this point Generic D vs. Generic R goes to the D in Virginia.

Notice there is no clear leak of the choice. We know that Kaine is the most likely, but we don't know who has actually been picked. This is a polished campaign. It is good when the pick is never outright revealed before the actual announcement.

"almost losing" is another name for winning!

You can't spin someone who goes from this


to this


as a great candidate, especially when his opponent was supposed to be a joke.  That was a terrible result for Warner.

It's hard to compare Kaine 2012 with Warner 2008. 2008 was the most lopsided result in Virginia in 20 years. At no point did Kaine poll above 52%, and that's what he got. I'm not saying it was an impressive win, but do you really expect Democrats to get 65% or anywhere close to that in Virginia?

No, but Warner underperformed the preelection polls by 9 points.
