It's important to remember that no candidate is running against Jesus. They are all running against other flawed human beings. So it's important to judge them against whatever other choice we have.
And right now the other choice is the vice president that even the left thought was an empty suit - until Biden dropped out - with her incredibly weird partner. The two of them are both left of Sanders, and that's pretty hard left.
And thanks to the internet, that can't be hidden. Though it appears that Harris' main goal in her campaign is to distance herself from her past self. No wonder she was all about wanting to be unencumbered from the past.
Yeah, I'm sure a lot of guys in prison feel the same way.
