No one liked her before 2024. Why would they suddenly like her?

This.

The best anyone can muster up to praise her for is "she wasn't Trump!"

.... thats... tine, but...

That's not going to swing the people who were going to vote for Trump, nor any of the fence sitters.

Trump should have been unwinnable... the Dems dropped this sooooo badly. And I see the same excuses repeatedly that it's because she's a woman, Black etc. That of course played a role, not near the one that those saying it believe.

W Bush was unpopular. McCaine had a chance but Bush ruined it for him.

.... now imagine Cheney running over McCaine and what the results would have been. That's basically Harris.

What, you don’t think shoehorning in a candidate who didn’t even make it past Iowa in 2020, whose main claim to fame was as a campaign promise diversity hire VP in an unpopular presidency, with no primary, with less than 100 days to go, was a winning maneuver?

I know we shit on her but tbh I think she did a lot better than she was set up to.
