Kamala Harris is far from the worst vice president: Why do polls say otherwise?
The Hill ^ | 07/19/2023 | LAUREN LEADER,

Posted on 07/19/2023 6:00:09 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Vice President Kamala Harris made history again recently but not just because she cast more tie break votes than any previous vice president. She became the most unpopular vice president in recent history.

According to new aggregate polls from the LA Times, Harris’s unfavorable rating is higher than at any point since she became vice president and her popularity is as low as or lower than every previous vice president of the last 30 years during similar stages of their terms — including Dick Cheney (R) and Al Gore (D), both of whom struggled with popular opinion throughout their terms.

This ignoble distinction raises important questions as the election season heats up: Is Harris really doing such a terrible job, so out of touch with the American people that she deserves this historic disapproval? Or as the first female vice president of color, is she on the receiving end of well-documented and deeply ingrained bias?

“Why do polls say otherwise?”

A more apt question might be: “Why is this even being discussed by the Leftist media?”

“Harris makes Dan Quayle look like a Rhodes scholar”

Did you really fall for that, and maybe all fall for what was done to Palin?

Quayle was the victim of a hostile press and we shouldn’t continue to carry the Left’s water for them. He was at least as qualified as anyone else and much better than Biden as VP or Harris. Incidentally, he was chosen because he was the party’s number one cash earner.

“Kamala Harris is far from the worst vice president ...”

Begs the question.

“Why do polls say otherwise?”

An overwhelming blitz of news, causing more people to be aware of her in some negative context. Regardless of whether Dick Cheney, Al Gore, or Joe Biden was a “worse” Vice President in any measurable sense, they weren’t brought to people’s attention nearly as much.

Seems to me The Hill should rename itself to “The Democratic Daily News”.

Dan Quayle was not stupid. Technically, he didn’t even spell potato wrong. Potatoe was a common and acceptable alternate spelling.

What is your fascination with "The Hill"? That is a garbage news source that is simply a trumpet for Democrat lies and distortions.

It's like quoting "Yahoo", which is also just a source of lies and misdirection.

Why do you feel we need to keep seeing these garbage stories from "the Hill"?

I wonder what the heck she’s always laughing about? What’s going on in America these days isn’t funny.

Much of what is wrong in this country is caused by media liars distorting the truth in order to manipulate the public.

They did the same thing with "George HW Bush" doesn't even know what a grocery scanner is!"

Just more lying for political purposes.

Totally agree, which is why the right needs more outlets. The twitter takeover was helpful.
