That little of her support is policy driven. It's about the personality and the power of the moment. Also about backing someone they see as tough enough to beat Republicans at their own game and who will win at all costs (arguable but we'll see. We know she can punch left. Frankly her performance in the primaries did not fill me with confidence) On some level I get it. But we were never gonna win policy arguments with them cause that wasn't why they supported her in the first place.
