Kaine was great because he was theoretically supposed to appeal to Latinos (on a personal level) for two reasons
A) He spoke Spanish
B) He was a missionary in Honduras.

Latinos don't actually care if you speak Spanish, it's not a rare language in the US. Like, I love bullshitting in Spanish, especially when people don't expect me to speak it, but I've never met anyone in or out of my family that's been impressed with someone speaking Spanish outside of a very basic patronizing level.

As for the missionary thing... :shrug:. I don't think anyone outside of Mormons care about missionaries.

Why didn't I realize back when the democrats had the legislative and executive branches locked down and NOTHING loving HAPPENED that the democratic party was hosed? Why didn't I try and get involved then to un-gently caress it? How was I so blind and thought that everything was under control?

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

i can believe this

like maybe you knew deep in your heart it couldn't be possible, but when the poll numbers were clear to all of us you were probably thinking other ways it could go, like tim kaine dies of a heart attack right before inauguration, or it turns out he has some horrible skeletons in his closet and has to resign the ticket in disgrace. your baloogansense was what knew trump would win. it was incontrovertible.

baloogans can sense a disaster coming, like everything else in the sewer, they can feel the vibrations and/or some poo poo

Causation or Correlation?

I knew nothing about Tim Kaine when he was announced as VP, and if I had seen this, this would be enough to know about him.

Kaine was really the perfect match for Hillary (and the Democrats in general), wasn't he? Not like, perfect in than he's the best who could help her win, but perfect in personality matching. "Fight for the little guy" and simultaneously "rest on your laurels."

Socially liberal, fiscally centrist and pro business. Represents a state with the richest counties in the US that got rich screwing the rest of the country but are blue.... for social reasons. Perfect Democrat representing the economic and social class the party cares about.
