Is she the worst candidate ever, even more so than I dare say Madam Hillary?

Hillary's internal polls at least had her slightly up (but within the margin of error) when she was doing shit like this.

Kamala/Biden campaign people said there was a poll bounce after they dropped Biden, but even with that Kamala was never in the lead in their internal polling. So - yes. Yes, she is.

Was it even close during "weird" week?

Clinton could handle a hostile interview. Harris couldn't get through a neutral one.

She couldn't even get through softball interviews let alone neutral

Kamala: I-was-saying

Absolutely worse than Hillary. Besides never actually winning a primary, she performed worse against Trump after the people had already seen what a Trump presidency is like. She lost the popular vote, it's not even close.

Unlike the coconut tree, Hilldawg at least won the popular vote.

I think the campaign bought into the insane idea that Biden was too far left and that caused his unpopularity. It’s the only way to explain why this campaign went from disdain for the left to open hostility.

That was always gonna be the conclusion they came to, the people that run these campaigns and fund them don't have a different modality

People actually liked Clinton. Not you, not me, not people like you or me, but more than one person, and that makes people. I don't think the same could be said of Harris.

A person very people like versus a person literally no one likes

With Clinton, I guess you could at least say she won a primary.
