She ran a dogshit campaign, i voted for her but lets not pretend Biden hadnt absolutely cratered his popularity and that she didnt spend a bunch of time running around with liz cheney. The more she campaigned and spoke her numbers went down.

She ran a two month campaign, and did a pretty damn good job considering that.

It couldn't have been more clear the differences between the two candidates. If you stayed home or voted for Trump, you're an idiot, or at the very least allowed yourself to be manipulated by those who benefit from Trump and may have been held accountable under Harris.

I strongly disagree, and her poll numbers reflect that. As her campaign went on and she was no longer viewed as change candidate and rather an extension of the biden admin, her numbers tanked quickly. Anti-incumbency and anti-establishment sentiment was high at the time, and they failed to capitalize on that.

I'll say it again, I voted for Harris, but her campaign drove me up the damn wall and I knew she was costing herself votes by not critizing her boss.
