Well that depends if it strengthen or weakens their argument.

Pretty sure Greeds comments were sarcastic.

Sorry, got my talking points sites mixed up for a bit.

I would take Tulsi for VP over Kamala every day of the week. While I would disagree with several of her positions, I highly respect her intellect and leadership abilities. She knocked Kamala out of the primaries with what, 5 to 6 sentences!

she was the only Dem candidate last year that would have likely gotten me to actually vote other than trump. I dont agree with her on everything, but I think she does have some common sense to her and would be acting in the best interest of our country and constitution more than the rest of those that ran against Trump.
she is more of a moderate than some would like to believe IMO. or maybe its just my perspective of her and what a moderate is?

There is a Republican out of Ohio who may toss his hat in the ring...He'll certainly get some consideration from me.
I was thinking at one point DeSantis may garner some of my interest, but I dont like how he's managed Covid in FL and his rationale for what he's done.

I would expect nothing less than that from DeSantis's own site =)
Since June 20, 84 out of every 100,000 Floridians were reported to have died of COVID-19, according to the CDC data. That rate, adjusting for Florida’s large population, is the worst in the nation.
The second highest per-capita rate was in Mississippi, where 81 deaths were reported per 100,000 people since June 20. The next highest per-capita death rates were Louisiana, 73; Alabama, 67; and Arkansas, 63.
Miami-Dade County suffered more reported deaths than any other county in the nation this summer, with 2,032 recorded since June 20.
Harris County, Texas, home to Houston, had the second-most reported COVID-19 deaths during the period, with 1,908, followed by Los Angeles County, California, with 1,741. Fourth worst nationally was Broward County, with 1,443 reported COVID-19 deaths during the period.
The CDC data covers more than 3,200 American counties and parishes.
Also among the 20 worst counties in the nation for summer COVID-19 deaths were Duval County, with 1,151 deaths reported; Palm Beach County, 1,050; Hillsborough County, 929; Polk County, 884; Pinellas County, 845; Brevard County, 738; Orange County, 692; Lee County, 684; and Marion County, 663.
On a per-capita basis, nearly all the worst counties in America were rural, low-population counties where a few tragic deaths disproportionately drove up mortality rates.
Among America’s 604 counties and parishes with at least 100,000 residents, the six counties with the worst death rates all were in Florida

Florida is such a large and even diverse state. @StickyBun (who hails from there) reminded me a while ago vax rates vary a ton whether you're looking at So Florida vs other areas. Big swaths of poor, rural and high ethnic are probably driving the higher mortality rates too.

I would still vote for Desantis, I would love to see him pick Tulsi as a running mate and really set the political arena on fire.

give it time. over the next few months we will see a large uptick in hospitalizations and deaths in the northern part of the country as we get into our peak season. anything being put out there right now is just not a complete picture. I was hearing last week that some of the highest hospitalization rates for covid are currently in blue states that are still having the most restrictions and higher vaccination rates. ( I think that was from KFANS Dr Bill Maurice- "Mayo Clinic Big Knocker", but I am not certain )
