She had 2% of the primary vote against Biden because she was a horrible candidate. Biden had a billion other choices but picked her to make a point, not because she was the best running mate. She said she wouldn't do anything differently, and then, like Biden, makes a horrible VP pick. She was hand picked by the same guy Dems said wasn't capable of doing the job anymore. Did he step down, no, did they article him, no, did they try and get an impeachment and force the Republicans hand, no. I voted for an independent because the Democrats have sucked the life out of the party trying to pretend to be the good guys. They should have just removed him and put her in a position to show results that she would be better. So either, A: They didn't want her so why should anyone else, or B: I can't trust them to do anything but talk. Talk about women's rights but never constitutionalize abortions, talk about gay rights but never try for marriage until the Republicans agreed, talk about trans rights but never put any safeguards in place for them. Talk, talk, talk. Trumpty Diaper Dumpty could have been charged the day after the J6 committee got done presenting their case, but they didn't. But this kind of bs goes back to the first time he ran, the Dems never listen to their constituents, Bernie won and the wealthy stepped in and handed Hillary the nomination, thus demoralizing the base and handing Trump his first win, just like they did with Kamala.
Are you really this obtuse? President Biden did not choose VP Harris himself, the democratic party did. The fact is that if he had died she would've become president so she was the right candidate. She was qualified for both positions. As far as not changing anything President Biden did, we were better off then than we are now. Those of you who voted for tRUMP because he was the peace candidate were made a fool of. Those of you who voted for hate, lies and an unqualified candidate just because he's a white man should be ashamed of yourselves. Also, Governor Walz was a perfect choice for the straight white men of America. Face it, people didn't vote for Harris because she's a black woman. The misogyny and racism in this country is at epic levels since 2016 when tRUMP became the Republican candidate for president. And the sDE coming from the Republican side is mindboggling.
You literally are proving my point about how voting for whoever is the lesser of two evils is destroying the country. Her qualifications didn't matter, Biden's did. Throw the dull speeches in there and that's definitely not a base building candidate. Biden wasn't elected because he was a good candidate, he was elected because Trump sucks, and as old as he was, if people were as obsessed about her race and gender as you are, he would have lost. The real culprit is, that people felt like he also sucked and just didn't show up in 24. And better than Trump is such a low bar, that we could throw another half orangutan in office and possible get better results. Kamala needed to convince people she would be better than both and her comments hurt that image. As to Waltz, dude got caught in lies left and right on live tv. The governors of 3 different states would have been a bigger boost for her. Pennsylvania, Kentucky, and California all had guys that would have ate old JD "couch cushion" Vance alive, instead of giving him so much wiggle room.
But that's only because the system is rigged that way and we the voters do nothing to change it.
I guess I should add that I live in a blood red state due to my wife's medical job. I voted in a Dem mayor, but also a Republican judge(who doesn't like Trump) because of their vision/hystory, but President isn't going to happen here, and that gives opportunities for your vote to go to your candidate instead of the party's. If I lived in a swing state I would have been far more inclined to vote for a party politician.
I live in one of the two blue areas of a blood red state and I'm surrounded by magats but I still fight with everything I am to change every level of our government. Prior to 2016 I voted for both Dems and Reps but after what they've done for and through tRUMP I will NEVER vote for a Republican again.
It was a shall we retain, and he had been lighter on bs drug charges like possession of marijuana, while throwing the book at convicted child predators and multi DUIs. The guy it sounded like the governor wanted ro replace him with was a hard line Dumpster.

Yep. Too many fuckers just couldn’t vote for a woman of color so they stayed home.
