For Kamala, the good news is also the bad news. She is ferociously aggressive, competent on defense, obviously intelligent, certainly ruthless. In other words, the bitch is a bitch. The bad news? It is obvious.
In 2016 Donald Trump won the suburban women's vote but the Republicans booted it away in 2018 and it cost the House. Much of the me -too movement, the pussyhats , the rape allegations, the discarding of Bill Clinton, the Harvey Weinstein spasm etc. was contrived to cultivate the women's vote.
But will this nasty female, who will be able to stand up to Donald Trump on the debate stage and who will present an image as a powerful potential Chief Executive and Commander-In-Chief, even with charisma, be so offputting that she alienates the very demographic that the Democrats are counting on?
This factor is not a matter of policy choice, it is purely a matter of emotion, it is reactive. To know how it will play out, you must consult Sigmund Freud-but then he said, "what does a woman want?"
