I'm confused... why do even Democrats seem conflicted on Kamala Harris as a replacement of Joe Biden? (lemmy.ml)

As far as I can tell, different faces, but same old, same old... I mean, literally anyone is better than Biden at the job, considering age...

What do dems worry about her?

The phrase is Democrats fall in love, Republicans fall in line.

But I don't think it's really all that accurate. It's more like Republicans fall in line, Democrats come to terms with.

And we will.

Also, Biden was not bad at the job. Few had the knowledge of the levers of power to keep shit running with Republican/Sinema/Manchin obstruction.

But he is four years older, and I hope moving to a different candidate works out. Democrats should love a chance to vote for a totally new candidate who keeps most of the same mildly progressive agenda.

But I will say if she doesn't stick with the plan to reform the Supreme Court I will be extremely disappointed.
