    I’m not suddenly about to put a Harris billboard on my lawn

    Do they have billboards saying “reluctantly voting Harris out of necessity”?

      They should. The overwhelming majority of Biden voters voted against Trump more than for Biden and I’d bet the farm that, while probably to a significantly lesser degree, Harris is going to win in the same way.

      The Dem leadership hasn’t updated the pillars of their electoral and policymaking strategy since 1992 and it really shows.

      Even when Harris or Walz say something truly based that gets the Left hopeful for real change in the right direction (which has happened a few times), some apparatchik always takes pains to point out that it’s “not part of the platform” 😮‍💨

        Press releases walking back good things she said was kind of the hallmark of her primary campaign in 2020 too.
