In reply to the discussion: Harris-Walz was a great ticket and could be again. [View all]ShazzieB
(21,280 posts)It pains me to say it, because i was absolutely crazy about both of them, and I think they ran a great campaign under the circumstances. Unfortunately, it would take a lot to convince me that this racist, sexist country is ready to elect a woman potus, much less a woman of color. It makes me mad as hell to say that, because I always thought (or at least hoped) we would have a woman president in my lifetime, but enough racist, sexist voters showed their true colors last fall to make think this just isn't the time.
Harris-Walz were a dream team, imo, but the dream did not come true, and it's time to move on. As others here have said, I think there needs to be an open primary so the contenders can show their stuff to the voters, and the candidate for potus needs to be based on that. In the meantime, we need to focus on flipping as many Congressional seats as possible in next year's midterms.
