Amid turmoil over the Democratic Party’s future, Harris has been privately sounding out confidants about her own prospects.

    The document says:

    1. Popular policies wouldn’t allow us to maintain a fundraising edge
    2. We lost enthusiasm because of our vigorous defence of Israel
    3. Biden should have dropped out earlier, and there were people aware of the risk of a bad performance in the debate
    4. Harris didn’t do enough to differentiate herself from Biden and the opposition in (yet another) anti-establishment election

      1. Biden should have been a one term president since that’s what he said he was going to do at the beginning of his term. Reneging on that promise made them look desperate.

        Sometimes I like to claim to the Blue No Matter Who folks that her laugh is the sole reason I didn’t vote for her.

        For you see, her laugh causes sufficient wave interference to trigger an integer overflow in voting interest, as demonstrated by the Loose Square Law:

        VI = Sign(L % 2^32 - 2^31) * (L % 2^32) / 2^32

        Where VI is voting interest as a percentage and L is the sound of a laugh in decibels.

        As Kamala’s laugh exceeded the 2^31 dB threshold, it was advisable to not vote for her to save the planet’s structural integrity.

      1. Trying to cozy up to Republicans by parading around with Liz Cheney was a horrible mistake that cost us progressive support.

      real question: what makes people think that the “6 7 center” people can make an accurate assessment of why they are bad

      the skills needed to do the thing are the same skills needed to evaluate the thing
