    Amazing how alienating vast swathes of your potential voters by proping up a genocide doesn’t improve your poll numbers.

    Truly shocking stuff. (It was not in fact shocking)

    They don’t want to win. They want to fundraise.

    Edit - Your boos mean nothing. I’ve seen what makes you cheer.

    The convention was extremely underwhelming on the topic of climate change. When she was vaguely understood people were giving her the benefit of the doubt but it seems she’s just another liberal leaning centrist.

      I don’t think she has claimed otherwise. I may really really want a leftist but the Democrats as a party are largely barely right of center.

        And I’m happy to let someone barely right of center be a placeholder for a future progressive if the alternative is a goddamn Nazi.

        I don’t think anyone arguing otherwise is an actual leftist, just someone who wants to piss in people’s Cheerios as much as possible.

        Harris was an early sponsor of the green new deal - she is now profracking. She’s absolutely moved noticeably to the right.

          I can only hope that’s to not deter voters the same way coal was an issue in WV in 2000. Otherwise I hate it.

      As I see it, Harris beats most on the issues, she is not Bernie or AOC, but among what’s realistically possible, she is better than I expected.
      And she absolutely brings good stuff to the table IMO.

    Maybe she’d have done better if she’d taken the opportunity to distance herself from Biden’s genocide policy.
