Hmm I wasn’t aware of her praise of strongmen... I would still vote for her in a general election, but idk if she’s clearly better than Kamala Harris, Sherrod Brown, or Jeff Merkley.
Harris has the charisma, we'll see if that can translate into votes if she decides to run (voters may be turned off by any perceived lack of experience or perceptions of fakeness and little substance).
Policy wise, Brown and Merkley bring a lot to the table, but in terms of personality, they are unfortunately very, very bland.
One problem Harris may face is that her record is not exactly stellar if she aims to cast herself as a progressive.
