I don't get why people don't like Kaine. He's a great choice, and a solid progressive, especially considering he represents a swing state.

Kaine adds no enthusiasm, he's an obnoxiously safe choice for a candidate that is constantly getting flack for being overly risk averse.

Well when your running against a psychopath, stable looks good.

Clinton didn't need to pick a walking bottle of Nyquil to project stability.

Oh for heaven's sake.  Politics aren't supposed to be entertainment.  Tim Kaine is a serious, progressive and compelling choice who is absolutely qualified to be President.

You want an "exciting" VP choice?  Then pick Sarah Palin.  But leave the Democrats out of it.

Oh please. Despite how much it offends the senses of policy wonks and other assorted political junkies, campaigns are won and lost on the enthusiasm of rubes and low info voters. Tim Kaine brings nothing to the table in that respect.

LOL at the idea of anyone more electrifying than Tim freaking Kaine being comparable to Sarah Palin.

You don't think his ability to speak Spanish and talk on Univision directly to Spanish voters won't have an impact on low information Spanish voters?

Clinton is already running away with low info hispanics, very little room for improvement there. Who is Kaine going to turnout that was previously hesitant to vote for Hillary? The 12 people who voted for Jim Webb?

Well, I guess she should have selected a 12 pack of beer as her running mate.

The beer would have been more justfiable than the 6 pack of club soda she actually selected.

Oh, OK.  I guess Trump really knocked that one out of the park by picking an empty suit and failed governor from a flyover state.

Trump didn't need help generating enthusiasm with low info voters, he needed pearl clutching DC Republicans to STFU and get in line. To that degree, Pence was a decent choice.

Clinton needed something different entirely; help convincing ordinary people that she can relate to them despite her reputation as an emotionally numb sociopath. So why not pick someone completely devoid of personality from the swing state you are least likely to lose?
