If you run a left-leaning candidate then the Republicans would call them woke and socialist. The average voter is clearly not a fan. Especially men, no matter how much Democrats try to pretend otherwise
They have called hillary clinton, joe biden, and kamala harris woke and socialists. They will do that to literally anyone. As long as the dem candidates are bad policy communicators those labels will stick and be perceived as negative.

Kamala Harris famously advocated for banning fracking, co-sponsored Medicare for all, endorsed a mandatory gun buyback program, etc.
Of course she changed her views when running for president, but she had a very short time to actually convince voters that she’s moved to the center
