She’s generally average from what I’ve heard amongst my friends. Not a slam dunk but not stumbling over herself. I think she’ll really have to prove herself and release a strong platform to sway any voters. The good news is that a decent number of people are going to vote for her just because she’s not Trump.
I suspect the real problem for some Americans will be a woman as president…which is just about how screwed America is right now.
Pretty notably she doesn’t have any big skeletons in her closet (that I know of at least) that Republicans can latch on to and create drama over.
but - from what I’ve heard while there is a vocal minority of women who are happy about roe being overturned, the vast vast majority of women are not happy about it. For a lot of women born after Roe, for example, it was a given that they had the right to get an abortion, and people took it away from them. I was worried about a woman being nominated - but honestly it might be the perfect time to nominate a woman.
On one side you have a bunch of old white men literally taking away women’s rights. On the other side you have an actual strong woman who wants to codify those rights into law.
I actually did not know that. I think them finishing off Roe was one of the worst things from a strategy standpoint the GOP could have done. They could have done nothing and had people voting for them for that for years. By doing something all they did was lose one of their best campaign talking points and piss off a lot of people who wanted Roe. I hope it continues to backfire on them.

Every election with abortion rights on the ballot has gone to democrats since the roe repeal if I’m not mistaken

Not an American, but wasn’t the school duty kind of a big deal?
