I think you are partially right. For starters.. this was not short notice by any standard. She ran a "solid" campaign.
I'd argue the campaign was flawed because the whole premise was flawed.. moving to the right does not help the democratic party. And the risk the Dems now face is that never trumpers join the democratic party and complete the transition of the US electoral system to a choice between maga (Christo fascism) and republican.
If the democratic party had an inkling that the victory of Trump would be as big as is now being said.. running Kamala was a doomed endeavor.. she was tainted by the Biden years.
