Mondale on Klobuchar: 'She has got a much better chance'

[TexasTowelie]

Former Vice President Walter Mondale thinks U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar not only will run for president but that she will be a much better candidate than he was when he lost his race for the White House.

Mondale was the Democratic nominee for president in 1984, when he lost in a landslide to Republican incumbent Ronald Reagan. He carried only his home state of Minnesota and the District of Columbia.

“She has got a much better chance of having a better result,” he said of Klobuchar in an interview Wednesday as speculation mounted that Minnesota’s Democratic senior senator will announce her candidacy Sunday in Minneapolis. Klobuchar hasn’t revealed her intentions, but just about everybody else thinks she’ll run.

Including Mondale. “I think we’ll get a positive result on Sunday,” he said.

1. With all due respect, Walter....

She's lovely and all but Trump would have her for lunch and still have room for a bucket of KFC and an extra large slice of beautiful chocolate came with 3 scoops of vanilla.

2. I disagree.

I have no idea why you would say that. She can be hard as nails.

3. One day it's reported she's an aggressive tyrant...

The next day she’s a weak woman candidate... sigh.

Makes me support her even more.

Underestimate Amy at your own peril...

4. I meant that in a good way.

I think she is very strong and won’t get pushed around.

5. I agree with you. Sorry if I wasn't clear.
