Even if she was DaPerfectCandidate, the platform she ran on was the problem. They repeated over and over “we will keep doing the same thing we have been doing and we are proud of ourselves”. People hated that. Biden won because he promised things people wanted, and then (unsurprisingly) didn’t do. Now this person was saying “yeah we will keep on not doing the thing you voted us to do, oh btw a bit more racist and homophobic cuz that’s what the republicans want”
No amount of “weird” rethoric would salvage that.
This situtation mirrors perfectly why Hillary lost. Obama promised cool things, didn’t do them, people gave him a second chance, didn’t do shit either, and now comes this lady not even promising cool things, people said “Fuck off, I’m not voting for you, maybe not voting at all”
Trump and Covid happened, massive shift in the whole world, now suddenly every fucking disgusting Dem slug was promising good things, people fell for it again because, hey everything is different now, maybe they are different too. But obviously wasn’t the case.
They specifically demanded Walz tone down his combative rhetoric to avoid scaring away the nevertrumpers. The “weird” thing was absolutely stuffed by the campaign despite being one of the few bright spots of the campaign.

I forgot about Dick Cheney. Even republicans hated that guy! What the hell were they thinking!
*Liz Cheney
they brought liz onto the campaign but they were very proud of dick’s endorsement
You don’t win elections with that. You don’t win elections being snarky either, you promise people good things, people vote for you.
Imagine how hard they’d win if they actually did those good things, too.
What are you? some kind of crazy populist? The adults in the room know better
