Despite my cynicism, despite my worries and doubts.
I felt like we were on the verge of something...
transformative.
On the verge of something new and wonderful and good.
I felt like we were ready to move forward, not backward.
I thought, I dared hope, we were ready for Kamala for the win
What we got is Kamala for the farewell.
America had a choice between a woman who was smart, experienced and full of compassion for a man who was not any of those things.
And decided on the latter.
At minimum, Kamala Harris had to do in 2024 at least as much as Joe Biden did in 2020. Instead, she did less.
Despite being on the road constantly, despite an organized ground operation, despite record fund raising, despite endorsements from Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen and from even Republicans for crying out loud.
Every box was checked off to lead Kamala Harris for the win.
Instead her opponent's grift was stronger than her truth.
So we say farewell to what could've been.
What could've been glorious.
Farewell to all that is good and positive.
