Well aware of it.


Can you point to a politician you agree with 100% of the time? I'll take 85%+ and run with it happily.

I didn't take you for such a sucker. This speech is every platitude in the book. It's progressive left Trump.

He tanked the Newark public schools, squandered $110 mil + of Mark Zuckerberg's donation to the city, and that bullshit power play re: the financial sector that he tried to pull on Obama has always rubbed me the wrong way. Dude is in this for himself.

He's media savvy, though, and realizes that's how people consume their politics these days. His Twitter persona, Brick City, and Street Fight are all damn good. So is this speech.


He's been one of my least favorite Dems for awhile now. There's just something about Jersey pols.

ETA: and he's one of those school "reform" boosters, up there with Rhee and them.

Basically. Not one of my least favorite Dems but not someone I want to see on a ticket anytime soon either unless he does some work as a senator.

I only heard a little on the radio just now and won't watch anymore until later. I wish they didn't talk about Trump. At all. Take the high road. Lay out a vision for the country.
 
I wasn't a fan of two people on the VP shortlist: Kaine and Booker. Booker's constituents don't like him, which combined with his record (especially on education), is good enough for me.

He created the new phrase...

BUT he's not 100% for Strickland. So, he sucks.
 
Booker went about 5 minutes too long. Good speech though. Talked policy more in 1 speech than in 4 nights last week.

Perhaps, but sadly taking the high road does not win elections.
 
I can't understand how anyone can attack Michelle Obama after these 7.5 years. She's been tremendous.
