Kamala Harris, Liz Cheney Alliance Backfires in Losing Effort
Breitbart ^ | 11/06/2024 | Wendell Husebø

Liz Cheney’s alliance with Vice President Kamala Harris failed to deliver enough votes in swing state suburbs to overcome President-elect Donald Trump’s surge.

The failed alliance suggests the Harris campaign blundered by utilizing Cheney as a surrogate to attract Republicans. The failed strategy will likely cause Democrat infighting.

Cheney, who allied herself with Democrats on the partisan January 6 committee, campaigned heavily with Harris in rustbelt-state suburbs. At each campaign stop, Cheney ripped Trump as a threat to democracy, a rhetoric that voters rejected on Election Day.

“If you’re at all concerned, you can vote your conscience and not ever have to say a word to anybody, and there will be millions of Republicans who do that on Nov. 5, vote for Vice President Harris,” Cheney told voters in Michigan, characterizing Trump as “unstable” and untrustworthy.

Cheney is so toxic, she hurt Harris by association.

No kidding. "Hey guys, it's someone both sides hate - we need her endorsement". Idiotic.

Cats and isolation called for, however I have begun to have some compassion for cats, so perhaps well mannered squirrels would do?

A potential Cabinet seat in a Harris/Walz administration.

Yeah. The Cheneys don’t have many followers. And making Liz Cheney such a big part of the campaign down the stretch just confused Democratic voters, who remembered the Cheneys as dastardly villains according to orthodox Democrat theology.

I guess those are Cheney’s real values and soul.

Tragic.

The democrats and liberals had a visceral hatred of the Cheneys and Liz, a deep, white hot hatred, there was no way that any large percentage of them could be positively influenced by bringing her into a Kamala pairing and the republicans hate her almost as much so there was no one that she doesn’t turnoff in any situation.

Liz Cheney and Kamala Harris, two of the most unlikable females of each party in America, who came up with the brilliant idea of putting them together?

You wouldn't want the squirrels to get rabies, would you?

She’s lucky. Most of Cheney’s allies end up butchered.

Democrats still hate her, she was just a useful idiot. Of course they found out that she wasn’t even useful.

“you can vote your conscience and not ever have to say a word to anybody”

That’s guaranteed to be true only if you vote in-person. For that reason, I think mail-in balloting should not be allowed, give or take absentee balloting for those truly unable to get to their voting place.
