    I think Whitmer with Pritzker would be a good combo, both Midwest governors, sure but that’s actually an important area that can swing versus Harris and Newsome both from California (and one would have to move their address because VP and President from same state invalidates that states electoral votes).

    Both libs but less ghoulish. Even if Pritzker is a billionaire (weirdly does progressive stuff because doesn’t have to worry about retirement).

    Or Kamala Pritzker. She’s bad but I think could be better than Biden and Pritzker is a white middle aged midwestern billionaire so that reassures conservatives a bit.

      I've thought about typing this up a few times but have shied away every other time.

      I don't think Pritzker is gonna be a player until next election, he's been cooking up stuff at home in Illinois to shore up his cred for a future run. From a Lib/Capitalist perspective he's doing the right things and hasn't waded into culture war at all, so I expect him to show up next time around as the guy for fascist suburbanites; a competent administrator and successful businessman with no drama or baggage.

        No that's a fair assessment, it really does feel like he's being keep in reserve for later.
