In It to Win It

At the very least, I appreciate that people recognize that this is not on Kamala Harris

They recognize that Kamala Harris held the party together under anxiety-inducing and uncertain circumstances.

I appreciate that people recognize that Kamala Harris played the absolute best hand with the cards she was dealt.

From all the media I've consumed, the only negatives I've heard is that they were told they were getting wrecked with the Republican transgender ads and they didn't do much to combat that. Other than that, the pundits seem to recognize that Kamala Harris did good with what she had.

She ran an effective 3.5 month campaign against a guy that has been campaigning nonstop with the same message for THE LAST NINE YEARS!

I appreciate that people are giving Kamala Harris the props she deserves for holding us together and picking up the mantle with 110 days to go.

She ran a damn near perfect campaign and had the spunk, energy, and caring nature.

We don't deserve her.

Hillary


People have issues with women in power. I doubt a white woman would have won.

sent that letter to Congress. He had a grudge against her and wanted to destroy her campaign.

She would've won if not for that.

And IMO VP Harris would've won if she had had two years to campaign like trump did, instead of just three and a few days.

Her campaign could have done a little more and I think she also fucked by Comey.

She jumped in with just a few months left and did such a great job with her rallies. And I KNOW those rallies weren't fake - here in Houston I have family members who waited in line for hours. All of those people were there & it's a big soccer stadium that she filled.

An excellent, disciplined speaker and sincere, well-qualified, authentic. If she decides to run again, I'd have no problem supporting her!
