It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

putting some no-future dude up there is probably the best choice because nothing seems to stall or sink a career like a response to the sotu or joint session speech

My big take away from the Dem response to Trump was that they are a party of olds.

I know the Republicans had goof balls give the responses to Obama, but at least they used it as a platform to test out their younger bench.

Responses to those speeches are career killers. Better to pick a guy who no longer holds elective office to fall on the grenade.

It doesn't have to be a career killer. It doesn't have to be anything. If the DC establishment has not learned two loving years after that god drat escalator that the rules of politics have irreversibly changed, then poo poo's hopeless. This could've been anything at all, and they went with that.

they gave the speech to a kentucky politician because there is enough negative sentiment in kentucky for democrats to make a legitimate, state-wide push there. they made a good decision. it is literally the best use of this position that anyone has ever taken.

the sotu response is a suicide mission most of the time, you get a few fuckin minutes in a small room somewgere after the most major scheduled address of the year, youll never come off as impressive in that context

the dnc using it as a farewell for an oldster is at least wiser than trying to improve the visibility of a rising star
