    Great Value Cthulhu is great btw.

    The thing that’s going to hurt her maybe is her kind of inconsistent record as a prosecutor. However, that’s being spun into progressive before it was cool, so I think she’ll be ok there.

    The other line of attack that might have some teeth is her dating the San Francisco mayor while he was estranged from his wife (for a decade), but the timeline of her promotions make that kind of a non issue.

    The only thing I’m really worried about is how Racist the US is. That might cost us this election, but if that’s how we go out, so be it. I’d rather lose with a worthy candidate than lose because we ran the stunt double from Weekend at Bernie’s.

      I mean, we just had a black president less than 10 years ago, Black Lives Matter was a thing across the country, and Hillary Clinton still won the popular vote, I think she actually has a good shot at it, assuming she/Democrats don’t muck it up (which is still a real possibility).

      Yeah I can’t help but wonder if having a black woman as candidate might be too much for some “liberals”
