Idk. Maybe. I think Biden has done a great job if you look at his policies, and I would have hoped people were excited about them. I take your comment to say that people are fooled into having more enthusiasm for a candidate with the same policies just becase a different face has been put on them. But there can be other reasons for the enthusiasm. For example, maybe people believe she will do a better job since she is younger and more energetic. And those people
think a younger, more energetic candidate makes for a better President even while holding the same political views. If that gets people excited, fine. It may be from being fickle and fooled or may be from a realistic view of how leaders impact the group and how a younger leader could be better.
For the dems it does seem to be a buff. The media is certainly telling us it’s a huge buff : half of the posts here today are about that.
This unfortunately shows us that some people viewed voting for a convicted felon, fraudster and rapist and condemning America to being dismantled and sold for parts vs voting for the status quo, lead by a deteriorating man, as some kind of dilemma .
My own politics are way left of either, but I don’t think is controversial to shine a light on the superficial nature of the electorate.
Bear in mind, a lot of these people screech about fascism etc etc, but somehow saw it as a difficult choice. At least, that’s what the polls, via the media, are telling us.
