The DEM response should have been by Elizabeth Warren (or an equally passionate progressive)

[RiverStone]

Just saying....

Someone who represented the current and future direction of the party, vs a "former" governor.

We need kick-ass inspiration and courageous push-back to the fascist prez.

1. Who choose the former Gov of Kentucky?

LAME!!!!!!

[RiverStone]

3. Good question! I was wondering the same n/t

[Fast Walker 52]

6. because he can talk about ACA to conservatives

also, the gig is a loser. No one ever comes out looking good from it.

[MFM008]

2. why NOT

Kamala Harris and Juan Castro and Gillibrand?
Why not dems?

[RiverStone]

4. YES! All 3 would have been far more inspirational choices!!!

In the face of such incompetent, idiotic, supreme stupidity from the narcissist in chief - why was one of your fine choices NOT picked?

This is the (((resistance)))!!!

It did not feel like the Kentucky gov was reflecting that kind of energy.

5. You think there was

a legitimate reason for picking this Governor, again I did not watch his response.
I really think it could be because the Dems are watching their backs, due to the Repigs sticking the knife in.

7. I think he was picked to appeal to the buyer's remorse club out there

and they are out there.

The massive protests every day around the country means that the "base" (us and many many newly awoken) are already energized so why have someone preaching to the choir? Whereas the choir might be expanded a bit in this instance.

8. bashear made aca work in KY

it took miotch lying about repalign it for him to keep his job (as well as the icnomptence of alison grimes)

[BumRushDaShow]

9. Yup and Bevin is now destroying it.

12. I actually agree with you..

and I think it's good explanation. Let's face it, I do enough screaming, ranting and raving for everyone. Warren's passion would've been great and there are other Dems who could fire back. But this calm, soft spoken voice came though. I listened, and I think a lot of people listened. He said good things about Democrats to people who just might listen.

10. Disagree

Rebuttal speeches are notorious for being a disaster, don't pick a rising star, this was a good pick, no harm no foul

11. As I said earlier

Where. Are. The. Stars.
