    Like… yes, it is a state level election. But you don’t come out of absolutely nowhere and become the one true hope for the Democrats. Okay… Obama actually DID but he had actually had a political career until then, we just weren’t paying attention.

    Platner has also had a political career prior to this. He didn’t come out of nowhere. You think the unions that recruited him to run did so based on 20 year old reddit comments?
