It's obviously early and I obviously haven't decided who I'm gonna support yet, but I like what I see and I figure if I start the thread and she wins I look like a genius
I think everyone who wants to take down Trump in two years owes it to themselves to take a good long luck at this woman. Here's another profile from a few years back.
She's smart and experienced (Yale and U of Chicago educated, about to start her third term in the US Senate). She can bring together centrists and progressives. She's tough (former Hennepin County prosecutor) but funny and universally liked. She appeals to white suburban and rural voters. And in the immortal words of DJ Khaled, all she does is win. She won her first Minnesota Senate election by 20 points, her second by 35 and then won yesterday in 34 in a state that Clinton only won by 1.5 (also there was another Senate race in her state Tuesday, the Dem won that one by 10). To put it in perspective, she outperforms the partisan lean by her state by the same margin as Dem centrist miracle-workers in deep red states like Manchin and Tester even though her state already leans slightly blue.
She's incredibly productive, supposedly having passed more legislation than any other Senator according to a govtrack link on that Wikipedia page. She'll inspire all those suburban moms who are trending Dem because she's one of them, and because she famously absorbed Kavanaugh's worst hissy fit (of many) with dignity. She's mostly been left alone by the conservative media and is scandal-free, so the Fox News hate machine won't have nearly as much success with their usual hate-mongering smear campaign.
Give her a minority running mate like Julian Castro and I don't see a weakness.
