    I just looked up some of her positions and she does seem a bit more progressive than Biden was. She cosponsored Bernie’s medicare for all bill a few years ago and supports marijuana legalization.

    I think this whole mess could actually be a net positive for democrats as it reinvigorates enthusiasm (“hope and change”, version 2024)

      Yeah painting Harris as a centrist shill was never true.

      She is an ex cop. Isn’t that exactly what we want cops to do? Leave the profession? She’s governed from the left and was just a smidge to the right of warren in the primaries.

      Her time as Vice president has been phenomenal.
