Kamala is one of the few options with worse approval ratings than Biden tho...
https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/02/politics/cnn-poll-post-debate/index.html
She does do better with independents in a head v head poll against trump.
But I can't imagine anyone is seriously thinking her 29% favorability should just be ignored.
Sadly, 69% of people not caring about Gretchen Whitmere makes her our best bet that the DNC is likely to support.
There's no way they'd back AOC
Big Gretch for VP. You heard it here 1st.
She really should have been Biden's VP.
It wasn't too long ago VPs were chosen to carry their home state, and we need Michigan.
Kamala brought nothing to the ticket, there's no way Dems would lose Cali, and she's ridiculously unpopular nationwide.
Even swapping her for Kamala at VP would make me feel better about Biden's chances. Still not comfortable, but better at least
