How do you explain her national campaign in 2019 or her current campaign?
She's scrubbed any mention of actual policies from her campaign materials and her campaign is leaking to the media that she doesn't support any of that stuff anymore. I'd say that speaks to my hypothesis.
In 2019, she was probably trying to ride the socialist momentum from Bernie's 2016 campaign. I don't think she failed because of policies. People just don't like her.

You don’t actually believe her?
Every leftist politician pretends to be a moderate than governs left.
Does she support fracking in Pennsylvania?
Is she going to restart keystone XL?
Her campaign is trying to deceive gullible voters
reply
I'm not saying she won't govern left. I'm saying she doesn't have any ideological commitment to it.
She'll do whatever increases her power and in general socialist policies grant more power to politicians.

The people who selected her are hard left.
By selecting Walz instead of Shapiro she also demonstrated she is controlled by the hard left.

Or it showed that they know their voters are too antisemitic to support that ticket.

I would say more anti Israel but I see your point
Actually they were worried about alienating certain voters in Michigan and Minnesota

Voters who likely don't draw a distinction between Israeli and Jewish.
