It Begins: Biden Advisors Tell the Press That the Defeat Was Caused by "Obama Advisors" Who Pushed Biden Out and Then Began Running "Outdated Obama-Era Playbooks"

Sure, this isn't the meanest stuff they can say, but this is just the opening.

Politico, which of course is just a mouthpiece for those Obama advisors, say that Harris (and her Obama Advisors) did nothing wrong, and that everything is Joe Biden's fault.

Okay, sure, most if it is Joe Biden's fault.

But the Obama Advisors and Harris were in charge of Harris's campaign, not Joe Biden.

But the momentum advisers insisted she'd built [during her convention] failed to materialize. She never sufficiently buried Biden's ghost, severely hamstringing her ability to sell voters on the idea that hers was the turn-the-page candidacy.
It happened, simply, because Harris refused to make a clean break from the last four years when voters indicated that's what they wanted. Worse, she hesitated to draw any daylight between herself and her boss on Biden's biggest vulnerability -- his stewardship over the economy -- nor identify any specific way her presidency would be different from his tenure beyond naming a Republican to her Cabinet.

Which was Harris's choice. But also, Harris couldn't "turn the page" on Biden's record. She was the tie-breaking vote on the fake "Inflation Reduction Act" that flooded the nation with fake dollars and spurred even greater inflation.

Was she going to take ownership of that and admit error?

Not hardly! Democrats never admit error! At most, they'll claim "our messaging failed to highlight how awesome we did."

Usually they just claim "the public is too dumb to realize how good they've got it."

And that is, indeed, an outdated Obama-era playbook.

Some close allies and even a few aides privately questioned why she continued to hold him so closely, particularly because her campaign didn't try to make extensive use of their record....
"We ran the best campaign we could, considering Joe Biden was president," grumbled one Harris aide granted anonymity to speak freely. "Joe Biden is the singular reason Kamala Harris and Democrats lost tonight."
Another Harris aide said it was clear Biden should have made a graceful exit much sooner, allowing Democrats to hold a primary they believed Harris would have won.
...
Even the advantages Harris' team had long boasted about -- its professional ground game versus Trump's band of MAGA activists and billionaire rebels, along with Democrats' perceived strength across the suburbs, were blunted. And inside the campaign, some elected officials and strategists had been warning that not only was their operation lagging, but it was being poorly run.

Every office she's ever headed has been disorganized, poorly run, and marked by high turnover rates because she's a nasty drunk who doesn't do her homework and then blames the staff for her failures.

Kamala's staff never Positions Her For Success.

...

And on Wednesday, Democrats were also starting to point fingers at Harris' data team. A Pennsylvania Democratic strategist, granted anonymity to speak freely, said that the Harris campaign predicted higher turnout in key counties such as Chester and Montgomery in the Philadelphia suburbs.
"This is looking like Robby Mook 2.0," the person said.

Mook was Hillary Clinton's campaign manager in 2016.

The article notes that Harris's campaign took Trump's campaign to be "unstrategic" and improvised, because that's what they saw in Trump's speeches. But in fact Trump's campaign was a team of killers quietly sticking daggers into them.

While Democrats led by the Future Forward PAC launched unprecedented spending into the battlegrounds with a focus on Harris as a middle-class warrior, Trump and his allies spent tens of millions on spots that left a more visceral mark -- such as those featuring Harris' support for providing taxpayer-funded gender transition-related medical care for detained immigrants and federal prisoners. Others captured her unwillingness to separate herself from Biden.
...

Core to Harris' pitch, and from which her tactical decisions flowed, was the idea that she represented the safer option.
That's why she spent so much time campaigning with Republicans and never-Trumpers; why she rhetorically draped herself in the American flag and relentlessly advertised her own middle-class upbringing while bombarding the airwaves with messages about Trump's dangerous economic policies. It's why she wanted to appear as the law-and-order candidate who was out to stop the country from being taken over by a convicted felon. It's why she didn't lean in on talking about the historic nature of her candidacy and nomination.
After the initial elation among Democrats settled, Harris began to face questions from the media -- and criticism from Trump and his campaign -- over her not sitting for interviews with major news outlets. It took Harris more than a month before she sat down for her first extended interview, and then afterwards only went on a few select shows and friendly media outlets.
Harris chose not to provide extensive explanation, or sometimes any rationale at all, for the gaping chasm between many of her past policy positions on everything from hydraulic fracturing (a huge issue in Pennsylvania) and clean car mandates (a big deal in Michigan) to providing citizenship to unauthorized immigrants brought to the U.S. as children. She led with a "my principles haven't changed" approach that would have to serve as a catch-all.
Most around her supported the strategic decision, seeing it as "less is more" and contending that giving lengthy explanations would subject her to new questions from the news media and provide fresh fodder for Trump and Republicans to launch unrelenting attacks. However, it missed an opportunity to give off even the slightest whiff that she understood people might still have questions about how she could drift so far on issue after issue.

Let me make clear what Politico is trying to obscure: Harris chose a campaign of lying about her past positions, and her current positions, hoped to reassure the hard left that she still supported all of her insane San Francisco Progressive positions by not repudiating them and saying "My values haven't changed" (wink), and this very stupid and obvious deception was seen through by the public easily because while the public may not follow politics closely, they're not so stupid that they can't see through obvious lies.

But apart from that, Harris did everything right!

And other calculations Harris made at least internally seemed even riskier -- notably the refusal to separate from Biden, even after the president publicly offered her his permission to do so. Harris' aides during the campaign stressed that this was a line she was unwilling to cross, offering that doing so would undermine a litany of public statements she'd made about the president and blow holes in her own record of accomplishments in the White House.

"Bidenworld" responded to Politico's attempt to absolve Harris and Obama of any responsibility for the Harris-Obama disaster:

Josh Kraushaar
@JoshKraushaar
From Bidenworld: "There is no singular reason why we lost, but a big reason is because the Obama advisers publicly encouraged Democratic infighting to push Joe Biden out, didn't even want Kamala Harris as the nominee, and then signed up as the saviors of the campaign only to run outdated Obama-era playbooks for a candidate that wasn't Obama"

Hopefully, that is just the beginning of the war of words and recriminations.

Biden, for very good reasons, hates Obama.

Just about an hour ago, Biden gave a short speech promising to cooperate with Trump on the transition. He looked and sounded the most refreshed and lucid he's looked in ages. (Probably because he's had a three month long vacation.)

Some might even say he appeared happy, almost giddy, that Kamala had lost and proven his theory that he only he could beat Trump.

President Joe Biden briefly addressed the nation on Thursday following the stunning election victory of former President Donald Trump, promising to begin the transition process and urged American's to respect the choice of the people.

"For over 200 years American has carried on the greatest experiment of self-government in the world," Biden said. "Yesterday I spoke with President-elect Trump and congratulated him on his victory and I assured him that I will direct my entire administration to work with his team to ensure a peaceful and orderly transition."
"We accept the choice the country made. I have said many times, you can't love your country only when you win," Biden said. "You can't love your neighbor only when you agree. Something I hope we can do, no matter who you voted for, is see each other, not as adversaries, but as fellow Americans. Bring down the temperature."
Biden also said he hopes the election results show that America's electoral system is sound and can be trusted.

And, again, everyone knew this in 2019 when the New York Times ran that puff piece naming her as the future of the party in preparation for the primary.

Everyone knew she was a disgruntled, narcissist who hated everyone and was hated by everyone.

And the party still moved heaven and earth to put her in as the figurehead.

Kamala was a terrible candidate who never should have gotten close to power, but it wasn't her who got her there. It was the machine that did it. The machine saw what she was and liked it.

And the machine still rules the Democrat Party.

38 My favorite part, so far, of the post-mortem on the election by the Democrats is that it's 1,000 times more stupid than the GOP from 2012 that said, "we shoulda pushed amnesty!!"
Only to see "build the wall!" win the Presidency 4 years later.
That was the elites in their typical top-down habit; so it failed to take hold.

The Dems have settled on "we shoulda pushed more racism, bigotry, misogamy, and fascism!!"
But, it's coming from their base.
And they're aiming their guns at their own voters who strayed!

2) deceive the public that Joe was "sharp as a tack," "on his game," "the best he's ever been."

Running a former Republican would give them plenty to jaw about in regards to unity tickets and saving the country from an existential threat.

Yes the Dems would likely have to slightly moderate their pitch on trannies, abortion, and illegals but Romney would still give them 95% of what they would have gotten out of Kamala.

2020-when discrepancies popped up the response (and only response) was to whine about it on Twitter. "Oh, look, they're cheating."

2024 -at the slightest hint of discrepancies, Laura Trump was coordinating lawyers and election veterans directly to the location, identifying the specific problem, and immediately filing in court to stop it.

NOW, we know why the 3am massive cheat by dumping held back bogus ballots never happened. They KNEW the risk if getting caught in the headlights was a possibility, and to that point Trump was performing well in EVERY state. The Trump campaign, obviously, learns from their mistakes and shortcomings which is about the best thing I could hear coming into his second term.

No. They start from there.

When your platform is "enslave all the humans and make them serve our demonic will to power until their last ragged breath," you know the humans aren't going to like that.

The trick is to use what they call "optics" in their demon-tongue. Humans just call it lying. But once the humans figure out the actual platform, you blame the "bad optics" and never the platform.

158 12 Let me make clear what Politico is trying to obscure: Harris chose a campaign of lying about her past positions, and her current positions, hoped to reassure the hard left that she still supported all of her insane San Francisco Progressive positions by not repudiating them and saying "My values haven't changed" (wink), and this very stupid and obvious deception was seen through by the public easily because while the public may not follow politics closely, they're not so stupid that they can't see through obvious lies.

Prefect example: Harris on the view… how would you be different than Biden and her answer is “nothing comes to mind”…. That’s just stupid and low IQ

The steal succeeded in 2020 because few could imagine how blatant and low they’d be and then when it happened judges just wimped out. It didn’t succeed because of their brilliance

Oh BTW… I’m convinced Obama’s IQ is very similar to Kamala’s

that's why they've won the game. All this “high road” bullshit got us nothing but a boot on our collective neck. They wanted it more.

Exactly! Devious, evil fuckers like McConnell refused to do the right thing by seating Obama’s SC nominee. Lesson from the GOP: Nice guys finish last!

You know Chump is going to pardon everyone who got convicted for Jan. 6th. Biden is entitled to pardon his own son, whose offenses were far less serious.

When they go low we go to prison. When we go high we go to prison. Notice the pattern. We aren’t coming back from this.

Harris won't have the chance to be sworn in. Ever. You know how our party is. It's one and done. We don't let previous nominees run multiple times. And I'd be surprised if the party got behind a woman candidate again.

Easy, The lack of effective controls over cheat by mail systems caused by Covid is why the big cheat was difficult to pull off a second time.

There is still probably a 5-10 percent margin of cheat caused by ballot harvesting (paying people for their ballot and harvester collecting per ballot), sending ballots to nonexistent registered voters at non existent residences (empty lots, Wal Marts, factories, etc.) and so on.

Correct. Medicaid was likely lost, but Medicare is still coverage.

If she has a heart med that's wildly expensive and her income is low, there are normally big pharma and charitable arms of big pharma that will step up with an "award" the year to pay for the med. Her doctor's office would apply for her, but if they won't, she can call directly to the manufacturer of the med.

225 The Politico article blames many of Harris's campaign and messaging failures on decisions and choices SHE made. Did she make many or any key strategy and ad message decisions? Ask yourself, "Is there a reason the top people on Harris's camapign might falsely blame her for bad major decisions?" They all remember Robbie Mook. How many big campaigns has he managed the last 8 years?

Ah, who cares? It was going to be a Charlie Foxtrot no matter who made big decisions because the Candidate was terrible.

244 One other part in all this.

Biden ran in 2020 as "Not Trump". Well, Trump was the incumbent so that can work. You want a change? Well Biden's that change. Its a very superficial way to view things but its not completely wrong.

Then in 2024 Kamala ran as "Not Trump". But he wasn't the incumbent she was. Most leftists assumed she'd just be Biden part 2 and most non leftists did not want Biden part 2.

This is where picking any other Democrat, or like I suggested Mitt Romney, would have made that strategy a little more effective because High Priestess Hochel, Fuhrer Whitmer, or Gov Gruesome could all have better pretended to be a reformer then Kamala.

The ballots to nonexistent residences scam is so that partisan poll workers have a long list of people who didn't show up and didn't vote. Depending on the voting systems used, they might fill out ballots in their name during the dead of night, re-scan stacks of 97% Democrat ballots, or get deliveries of pre-printed ballots in the dead of night (there was video of this happening in Detroit this year).

The ads were effective with Black and Latino men, according to the Trump team, but also with moderate suburban white women who might be concerned about transgender athletes in girls’ sports.”

Not really but to spin up a national campaign staff in a couple of months, Kamala had to go with who was on the shelf with prior experience--that meant either Biden holdovers, the few Clintonoids around from 2016 that lost, or the Obama team.

She had no team of her own ready to go on short notice so she (really teh DNC) had to cobble together a team of retreads from Biden, Clintonoids retreads, and Obama retreads overlaid in some places at the very top by unproven mediocrities that Kamala chose like her campaign honcho in PA.

Then, even if a white male Kumala somehow could have made it to the Senate, he never would have been picked as VP by Biden. He specifically said he 100% was picking a black woman.

I know a little something about this. Pressler first went to Lloyd Smucker (R) who is a local congressman in Lancaster County where a good number of Amish reside. Smucker's family comes from the Amish. So, he used him for introductions. But, it didn't stop there. Pressler did the same with the Mennonites in the state who outnumber the Amish. The Mennonites are very, very anti-war, and Trump's no new war stance resonated (plus he had his first term to back that up). Finally, the Government raided Amos Miller's farm for selling unpasteurized milk and took him to court. That didn't sit well with the entire Amish AND Mennonite community. Many of them sell unpasteurized milk. All these people communicate, arguably are related in some fashion. Pressler acted on that effectively.

Some polling is pretty good. They're newer firms set on trying to correct what's happened.

They tend to be independent and untied to media companies.

However, the general atmosphere of polling is still dominated by terrible firms hired by media companies to push messages. I think the ground is shifting in the perception of polling away from anything released by a newspaper and towards the ones with stronger records.

They put Harris on the ticket for many reasons, but among them as insurance that he would not be defenestrated for his weakness. Oh, you think Biden is not with it get a load of her!

And then Trump accepted that debate. And they could not hide it. Oh, sure, everyone pretended to be surprised. But to this day Harris pretends Biden is healthy and hale. To admit that he wasn't is to admit their perfidy.

BUT - because they could only have someone poor in comparison as VP, that meant when the facade became untenable they only had a poor candidate.

Chris Cillizza just released a short YouTube video on his top 5 reasons Harris lost.

1- the economy
2- Biden was unpopular and unhelpful
3- Harris didn't separate herself from Biden enough
4- Harris is an untested, mediocre politician(!)
5- threat to democracy/fascism wasn't a winning message with independents

What did Cillizza say the Harris’s campaign message should have focused on? Literally "abortion, abortion, abortion, abortion, abortion." He said Harris won women by 10%, and it needed to be 15%, and nonstop abortion talk is apparently the way.

I think the only solution is to descale (go small) and reverse the whole fedgov, big state and municipal gubmints, and megacorp/mega ngo driven centralization.

We need subsidiarity for these times -putting most gubmint decisions including funding at the lowest level of government possible or having individuals do it.

That sort of organic society can take a lot of hits far better than centralization ever could.

532 States won by trump also voted yes on pro-abortion ballot measures. Including Florida. Theirs got 57% yes but it “failed” because 60% is needed to pass.

Still it shows even deep red states don’t want to ban abortion. And more importantly shows people understand what Roe means, it’s a state issue and has nothing to do with who is president.

I know a little something about this. Pressler first went to Lloyd Smucker (R) who is a local congressman in Lancaster County where a good number of Amish reside. Smucker's family comes from the Amish. So, he used him for introductions. But, it didn't stop there. Pressler did the same with the Mennonites in the state who outnumber the Amish. The Mennonites are very, very anti-war, and Trump's no new war stance resonated (plus he had his first term to back that up). Finally, the Government raided Amos Miller's farm for selling unpasteurized milk and took him to court. That didn't sit well with the entire Amish AND Mennonite community. Many of them sell unpasteurized milk. All these people communicate, arguably are related in some fashion. Pressler acted on that effectively.

You’re right, it’s much better to just let GOPe shills like Kevin McCarthy and Mike Johnson give the Democrats everything they want.

We’d have a bigger margin in the House if RINOs hadn’t retired en masse to punish MAGA voters.

I think the only solution is to descale (go small) and reverse the whole fedgov, big state and municipal gubmints, and megacorp/mega ngo driven centralization.

We need subsidiarity for these times -putting most gubmint decisions including funding at the lowest level of government possible or having individuals do it.

That sort of organic society can take a lot of hits far better than centralization ever could.

The dedicated partisan is never the target of a persuasive argument. You're not going to win over a zealot. Your target is people who are experiencing cognitive dissonance, who are already starting to see that the reality doesn't align with the dogma. Those, when provided with an alternate explanation, will assess it on its merit. The zealot will dismiss it out of hand.

Trump was undermined in a lot of places from the GOP side, so even with normal levels of cheating his votes are suppressed somewhat.

662 57 Why they really lost...

Jonathan Pie @JonathanPieNews Nov 6
Trump wins the White House. Again.
The Democrats blew it. Again.
A depressing yet predictable result.

663 Need to clone him for every state. It is time for the GOP to cease to be a top down organization that they have been since the Coolidge era and instead become an organic roots up localized organizations again. Ironically the Dems abandoned that model for the GOP centralized model when they became the party of governance after the New Deal.

More of those free cleanup details of inner city or other depressed blue areas. Doing one practical good for an area is more than Dems have done in 75 years.

664 Tweaking the campaign strategy would not have made a difference. They could have picked a better running mate for her, but, really, they should have told Biden last year he was a one-term President and had an open primary. Instead, they suffered from having to insist on the validity of the crap they were peddling until the debate made that impossible. At that point, they faced constrained options. Considering the right-track, wrong-track numbers and Harris's until then favorability ratings, they made a go of it into headwinds as much as they could, but she remained who she was, regardless of packaging (an inarticulate, grating vessel).

I think had they nominated a fresh face (e.g., Wes Moore), they probably could have won. Better tactics with Harris as the standard bearer of "Obama III" would not have made a difference.

I have no doubt that Antifa has gotten their mobilization orders and will begin their terror campaign soon.

All the checks bounced. That's why Kamala is in the whole 20 million.

The 2017 Wars on the West coast showed that Antifa is weak sauce unless actively protected by law enforcement. Any support from LE will have them routed.

668 Somewhat apropos, you can 3d print anything, just downloaded prints of Fatman and Little Boy.

Amazing.

Fat Man is cuter by far.

669 We are becoming a fractured society and top down simply does not work anymore in 21st century America.

I don't think the left has gotten that message yet as they are typically driven by whatever the narrative set by the national media is for the present day.

Posted by: whig at November 07, 2024 01:11 PM (ctrM5)

Top down rule by 'elites' that are stupider than any random people you pulled off the street is especially bad.

A major problem with top-down is getting accurate information back up the chain. Leftists with their requirement for dogma to be repeated by everyone on their side makes that impossible.

671 Biden got over 10 million more votes than Harris.

Did those voters stay home?

Did those voters never exist?

672 582 Get used to it: Senator Adam Schiff

I never saw anything from Steve Garvey. Totally invisible.
Posted by: San Franpsycho at November 07, 2024 01:18 PM (RIvkX)

There was almost no discussion about that race. Garvey must have never been close after the primary. I really hope whoever ends up being the Majority Leader punts Schiff's pasty butt far away from any and all committee seats.

673 One benefit of pointing fingers at either the Biden or Obama crowd is that it shields the actual co-chairs of Kakala's campaign like J B "Mr Creosote" Pritzker from getting any of the blame. Pritzker, as usual , is hiding behind his checkbook as the fallout from the Harris debacle starts flying.

Because, ludicrous as it may seem, Pritzker really sees himself as a viable presidential candidate. My best case is that he buys himself the Donk nomination in 2028, and gets steamrollered by either JD Vance or Ron DeSantis.

675 "She never sufficiently buried Biden's ghos"

Is "burying" something one typically does to/with a ghost....?

676 Trump's team was not lucky, they were brilliant and creative. To put together those trolls the last week? Amazing. And I heard Charlie Kirk talking about how they tried to appeal to the bros, and it was brilliant too. With him and The Persistence and the pros and Lara Trump--brilliant.

And Kamala's campaign was high school. When she would say she would not ban fracking, her eyes would shift. She was lying of course. She would just make the permits impossible to get, like Biden did. Everyone knew that!!
