She probably is so her VP pick is going to be very important in that regard to shore up her bona fides.

It’ll be a governor that covers those weaknesses.

Harris is loathed by vast swaths of the black community. Her record as a prosecutor is a negative to her base.


The same reason a Republican like Colin Powell endorsed Obama.

Dems loathe Rust Belt voters. Especially the college educated+ whites who think they're better than them. They begrudgingly put up with them because elections still run though the Rust Belt.

If Trump and JD beats their arse hard enough, I could see Dems abandoning the Rust Belt for awhile.

Where are the EVs coming from if not Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, etc?


They are trying to flood Texas but it doesn’t appear to be working and RDS has the Miami area machine of the Dems being dismantled.

Nah. Black women are historically the most consistent bloc in the entire party and none of the polling suggested anything differently. They’re a D lock as always

If anything it hurts standing with black men. Imagine a barbershop once they get going on her Jewish husband

In reality this was a move to excite suburban white women desperate to feel important
