“There is an embarrassment of riches among Senate Democrats who could be strong VP’s. Amy Klobuchar would be good. Tim Kaine would be good and so would Cory Booker,”
Folks, we have a problem. We simply have too many great VP choices and even the Republicans know it. This comment, by Senator Mike Lee from Utah is a follow-up to his somewhat gushy take on another of our favorites;
“She is very talented,” Lee said in an interview with The Huffington Post. “Every once in awhile when I’m flipping channels at night or something. I come across C-SPAN and I’ll see one of my colleagues speaking somewhere. And once or twice I’ve been flipping channels and have come across Elizabeth Warren and even though I probably disagree with what is being said I find her to be a very talented and persuasive public speaker.
“She’s captivating. She is really smart. And I believe she is kind of a hero among a lot of people in the Democratic Party including a lot of people who have been big fans of Bernie Sanders. So I suspect that would be a strong play if Hillary Clinton were to go in that direction.”
I would normally be suspicious of a Republican giving advice on who the Democratic VP pick should be, but Mike seems to have a little bit of a crush on Elizabeth Warren.
Who doesn’t?
