Even after a stretch of positive media coverage, a widely praised Democratic National Convention, and a debate performance in which she dominated former president Donald Trump, Harris has continued to cast her campaign as a long shot.

Why the hand-wringing, when Harris is polling far better than President Joe Biden was before he dropped out of the race?

Some pundits have stacked it up to a savvy get-out-the-vote strategy. But the race really is that close: especially in decisive swing states, the Harris campaign is, in many ways, the underdog. And considering the far larger size of Biden’s 2020 lead — and how narrow his win turned out to be — Democrats have every reason to worry.

    DNC komissars ain’t got a strategy beyond shaming people into voting for her lol

    Grifters got too comfortable. They don’t respect democratic voter and they sure as fuck won’t resonate with anyone else.

    Fuck 'em

          Oops, my bad! I posted that while still waking up and drinking my morning coffee. She’s a neolib. While she does advocate for a strong national defense, I don’t think she really aligns with any other Neocon ideals.

            I mean she aligns enough with Neocons to have made them the focus of her campaign for almost a month. Which is utterly baffling. But it happened.

      Right… but she’s not gonna do that.

      We have to force her and well we’re probably not gonna do that either, but that’s def more likely to work
