I mean, at this point, she’s polling better than him without campaigning. Once she starts campaigning those numbers will only go up. In terms of beating Trump, she’s an improvement. In terms of being an inspiring candidate with progressive ideals…I guess you could argue it’s a lateral move.
I don’t say this specifically about Harris, but in general, that’s wrong. The moment someone actually starts campaigning and running their polling falls. That’s because it’s easy to offer support to someone before they’re under harsh scrutiny, and you can bet Trump’s team has a ton of crap to fling at her the moment she’s the candidate. Most of it will be nonsense of course, but so is most of the crap he’s flung at everyone else.
Cool literally my only concern is beating trump tbh. Bit worried about a 2016 rerun and whatnot. Although I suppose Harris probably isn’t as wildly unpopular as Clinton? Idk
She’s not well known enough to be that disliked. She’s also got very little charisma, which is why she did so poorly in the primary. But she’s generally considered a good debater, which would be helpful right about now. Honestly, I think voters are just looking for someone who wasn’t alive when Germany surrendered, and she does fits the bill.
This uhhhh… this does not seem like an improvement

My teenaged, properly Trump hating kid: I don’t like Harris.
Me: Why not?
Kid: I don’t know, I just don’t like her. She’s awful.
Me: Do you know anything she’s done?
Kid: No, I just don’t like her.
Me: Have you ever even seen or heard her speak?
Kid: … No.
Let me tell you, the propaganda is powerful.
Sometimes you just don’t like people
