Mark Kelly is super moderate - that’s the only negative thing about him as far as I know. It’s possible his moderation was more about being elected in AZ and he might be free to be more left-leaning if he were on a national stage, but that’s like… not usually how it goes.
For Pete, it’s more of an “electibility” question - whether him being a gay man would turn off some voters? I would love to think we’re passed that on the left, but it’s an untested assumption.
And just to be clear, Pete and Mark are actually my top picks for VP, on a personal level. I’m just playing Trump’s advocate for the sake of discussion.
