    2. iirc she always polled worse among poc and when she was polling well, it was mostly affluent suburanites? why did people ever think that she was gonna be a win for poc voters, even with terminal lib brain?

      She wasn't picked to help Biden win in 2020; she was picked to be a clear centrist frontrunner in 2024. She offers nothing in the way of unique or popular policy ideas, she has no independent base of support, the Democratic Party (and Biden specifically) was doing fine with people of color, and her home state is as blue as it gets. They're counting on Biden winning (lol) and staying in office just one term, and then Harris being the obvious choice in 2024 with a built-in advantage in the biggest state in the primary.

        yeah, that, and she's great for big $ donors. she doesn't help electorally.
