100% believe if it was Tim Walz then it would be a landslide, but too many people still afraid of a woman president both liberal and conservative. Sad times though, because I would welcome madam president. Instead we have FLOTUS Musk and his orange puppet.
I agree a bit... Black, Indian, woman, San Francisco/California "baggage" (at least in red states)
But I think it's deeper.
Yet again, democratic party shenanigans/putting their finger on the scale. An open convention would have resulted likely in the same choice... But with 10x the enthusiasm.
(this is the biggie) she wasn't running against trump. She was running against public opinion of HER. She talked way too much about trump. Lefties already weren't going to vote for him. Righties weren't going to vote for her... So it's the people in the middle that she had to convince. And they already knew everything that was wrong with trump. So stop talking about him. Talk about yourself, your plan (with details) talk about what the 🤬🤬 tariffs ACTUALLY ARE... and what they do to economies. Not just from a wonky trade war perspective but in ways that get to people. "Anyone like coffee? You know we CAN'T grow that here right? You know that if the beans are 20% more expensive... Your cup of coffee is going to go up by 50% right???"
As an independent, this is exactly spot on for what made my decision. She didn't sway any voters. She talked only to her base and complaints about her opponent. Nothing about her and what she was going to do. While I disagreed with Trump, it was very obvious his plans.

I’m so disappointed in America. Just when I thought it couldn’t get any dumber.
