I don't have a criticism of her, but I do have concerns. My biggest concern are the people who won't vote for her based on her gender or race. As you said, they'll shroud it in ambiguous statements about just not liking her, but that'll be the reason for some people.
As for me, she's not as centrist as Biden, which is nice, but not as progressive as I'd like to see. But I'll vote for whomever the nominee is because they're not Trump. Knowing I'd have to vote for Biden again was bothering me though, he's given his life to public service, but his time was done, too many concerns.
Agree with you broadly. Yet... this type of concern is exactly why we end up with candidates like Biden. I say at this point pedal to the metal, let's go all in and make it stick. For me she's progressive enough given that no electable candidate will be as progressive as I'd like.
