As a Californian I’m excited at the prospect of pushing for a leftist candidate to replace her Senate seat.

I’m equally horrified that we could possibly get another terrible shithead like Feinstein.

Before I do anything, I think, well what hasn't been seen. Sometimes, that turns out to be something ghastly and not fit for society. And sometimes that inspiration becomes something that's really worthwhile.

Yeah, a lot of moderates are really liking this. Which is good for electability.

I'm still going to get drunk tonight though, my one hope was "not Harris". This election has taught me to never hope.

"Vague" support* for M4A is all that's allowed in the Democratic party. Actual universal health care would "cost too much".



* Means-tested "access" in the form of tax credits, if your income is within a certain bracket on alternate Tuesdays.

These takes are so loving dumb take them to the GE thread jesus loving christ.

Anyway, for actual no idiot post.

One of the good things about Harris is Pro Medicare For All. Or at least, was when she was running.

Yes, normally campaigns orient their strategies towards people who have expressed some willingness to potentially vote for them. When they vie for people who wear paraphernalia/identify themselves with the cause of not voting for that person, they usually don't tend to experience the same success.

Dog whistle? She has a long history of prosecuting homeless, non violent drug offenders, arresting kids for skipping school, increasing prosecution rates and overall being a terrible person toward the community she supposedly represents as a progressive.

She is a trash person. It has nothing to do with her gender, race, or anything else - simply her history and her choices.
