That people will vote for Kamala just to say F U to the Republicans even if they don't really like her otherwise Depends on how deeply they dig in. There's only a matter of time before it descends into outright "don't vote for her because she's black". They have nothing on her so they'll have to get more extreme. Thankfully, I think Kamala's team will be able to handle those attacks in a way that only bolsters her.

What a way to win suburban women He purposefully mispronounces her name too and it drives me insane.

clee95 Posted July 22 Posted July 22 Nancy is such a powerful individual figure in the democratic party holy.
shelven Posted July 22 Posted July 22 Apologies that I don't remember which one of you first said this a few days ago, but it's absolutely true that one plus side of running Kamala is that it will bring out just how weird the modern GOP is. I think a lot of undecided suburbanites are tired of seeing takes from the GOP like "being a stepmom makes you not a real mother" and "people who laugh are inherently incompetent" 3 1

Thuggin Posted July 22 Posted July 22 I'm skeptical of the idea that "anybody will do better than Biden" and so Kamala sees an instant bump in the polls against Trump. Polls coming out post-announcement aren't reflecting that (and I try to ignore the noise online because it rarely translates to real life), but I guess we'll have to wait to see the impact of Kamala being out on the campaign trail. At the very least she can better advocate her positions than Biden. Also, depending on if Kamala chooses a young running mate, the age argument that's been used by Republicans the last few years immediately swings to the Democrats' favor. Bought a Kamala Bi Pride mug though 1
wastedpotential Posted July 22 Posted July 22 19 minutes ago, anti-***** said: What does Beshear think about Gaza/Palestine? Would be nice to get someone who can solve that crisis Admittedly I haven't done a ton of digging, but he doesn't seem to be any more or less supportive than the average US politician (ie, strongly worded statements that have aged horribly back last October and then basically nothing since). He's certainly no Rashida Tlaib on the issue, but he's also not a Shapiro figure and hasn't really been tarnished as a zionist any more than any other politician. We'll have to see what Kamala sets as her specific message on Gaza, but I think Beshear is capable of getting into lockstep and I don't think he has skeletons in his closet of this issue. At the very least, I don't think he's likely to drive any voters away wrt Gaza that weren't already holding back because of Kamala. 1
Harrier Posted July 22 Posted July 22 Kamala's unpopularity is real, but it is also weak and malleable in comparison to that of other hated figures like Biden, Clinton and Trump. Most voters outside of the hardcore democratic base don't actually know her that well. I am hopeful that her favorability numbers can improve rapidly - I mean hell, look how quickly this threads hardcore leftists have warmed to her as a better alternative to Biden. 3 1

He's also a Kentuckian who cares about America and its people more than anything international. 3 minutes ago, Thuggin said: I'm skeptical of the idea that "anybody will do better than Biden" and so Kamala sees an instant bump in the polls against Trump.

Bought a Kamala Bi Pride mug though TBH, it's not possible for any detailed polls to already exist lol. All the polls coming out are either polls that were done as hypotheticals or instant flash polls. We probably won't get anything concrete for at least a few months.

I wish Kamala had a VP picked out already so this poll would be even more accurate. I'm not expecting much right out the gate. 1
