Not going to comment on a), but b) kind of makes sense to me. Her campaign feels very much like Obama’s. You have a candidate who is energetic, likeable, and generally seems like a decent person. You have someone who people want to vote for instead of just voting against the other guy. It makes sense they would try to draw parallels.
I have voted democrat since 2000. I really don’t feel that’s someone we “want” to vote for. That’s who we have. We didn’t get any other choice. She is ok but I really wish Walz was running for president instead.
Yeah, it was a badass line, but not in context. I don’t blame her, a speaker has to read the room and control the crowd, but it doesn’t belong on a t-shirt.
As to b), I’ve bemoaned the Democrats for years and years, but you gotta admit, the Harris campaign is hitting on all 8 cylinders, finally showing the balls I’ve screamed at them to grow.
It’s really funny that
a) A line where she tells anti-genocide protesters to shut up is being celebrated as a #girlboss moment
b) Dems suck so much at campaigning they still gotta use the 2008 Obama Hope poster

You don’t blame her? What’s a lower bar than “No genocide”?
