NBC affiliate @NECN just asked @timkaine if he's spoken with HRC. He's in Boston for long-scheduled fundraiser: "That's all I'm gonna say"

He's our good senator but I'm not down with this choice>
"He's not looking for another job"? We Virginians knew all along that running for mayor of Richmond is his first stepping stone to the White House. I think he's been applying for the job every chance he gets. While he was governor, wasn't his name's been floated with Obama or Kerry? Some of the moves he made or initiated left a bad taste to some of us Virginians who voted for him but he actually is making big steps each turn of his career to get close to PA Ave and there is really nothing wrong with his presidential ambition, I'm just saying...
What is this rumor that I read that Bill Clinton is the one actually pushing for him...is there any truth to this? I think VA will go blue with or without him on the ticket.

(47,770 posts)any rumors seriously. Even if Bill Clinton was pushing for him, that could just be a ruse to throw people off. Kaine being in MA could also be meant to throw us off. I think all this is very well orchestrated to build momentum and anticipation.

(13,340 posts)He's not going to jump ahead of HRC's announcement. I have my criticisms of him, but being undisciplined is not one of them.
