the case for why a biden loss might actually be better even in the shorter term has gotten much stronger now that harris is announced as his VP, because the sole purpose of nominating her was to lock up the dem nomination process for the next 12 years, which is likely to succeed

if you're on the left, by which I mean the actual socialist left, it doesn't matter, we can't do anything to affect the outcome of the general election (go phonebank and focus on klobuchar voters if you're one of those obsessives). but harris must be attacked with full force

the best hope the US left has got for 2024 is a very weakened harris who will be forced into a competitive primary. that will take a lot of effort, and as I noted before they will endlessly smear us as racists and sexists, but that's the only thing that can be done now

and remember
