Former Vice President Walter Mondale dead at 93
[NYP] Walter Mondale, who served as vice president under Jimmy Carter and was the Democratic nominee for president in 1984, died Monday in Minneapolis, a family spokesperson said. He was 93.

Nearing his death on Sunday, the elder statesman from Minnesota spoke by phone with President Biden and former Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton, as well as Vice President Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Axios reported.

In a goodbye email obtained by the website, Mondale told 320 staffers who worked for him over his four decade-long political career how much they meant to him and said he knew they would "keep up the good fight."

#1 Isn't Mondale the only politician to lose all 50 states? 49 when he went against Reagan's second term and the last one when he went for Senate or Governor and the Dems turned the Wellstone funeral into a pep rally and sickened everyone.

Seems such a record should be worth mentioning.
