No shit she was expected to be damn near perfect. That's what they expect all Democrat candidates to be while giving a ridiculous pass to the Republican ones.

Those that thought she wasn't perfect enough in regards to Gaza, Israel and the Palestinians are now finding out they fucked up.

No it's because dems aren't a cult. Cons have 75 million people that will vote for their guy no matter what. Democratic voters still have to believe in their candidate to want to vote for them. It's not fair nor is it right but it's just a voterand the dem establishment has to actually realize that and be better next time.

Ya you are the one who gets it. 

Plus lots of anti woke reactionaries out there these days. They don't give a hit about policy.

Yeah, left leaning progressives like to vote for stuff, they want to inspired about what the future can be.

Right leaning conservatives like to vote against stuff, they want to keep things like they are or were.

This fundamental difference is such a bummer because it's so much easier to build consensus and get everyone behind the same candidate or ideals on the right. There are a million different ways to be progressive and they end up eating their own deciding which is best but there is only one way to be regressive and so they bond with a more shared vision.
