    Sometimes. Not this time. Harris didn’t come within a thousand miles of running a campaign that would support that.

      I’ve yet to hear any name that can be convincingly argued to have been able to beat Trump.

        That’s why you have real primaries. I’d bet Wallz could have won at the top of the ticket. Any Democrat with a scrap of charisma and an anti-establishment vibe could have done it. It was Harris’s ties to Biden that did her in more than anything else.

          Did you watch the VP debate? Walz could never have pulled it off. Nobody could have, short of maybe someone like John Stewart. The people wanted lies, not the truth.

            I think Walz in a Walz campaign and Walz in a Harris campaign are two very different things. Walz in that debate was playing the message discipline game and pulling his punches because of it

              Any campaign needs message discipline. Even Trump has it in his own way.
