The Kamaltoe Harris Thread

Frontline tonight on PBS - very slanted while appearing to be even handed but the ignorant voter will no see it.

 

So, it appears that Kamunala's campaign is hitting the skids. I'll ask the liberals on this forum who were joyous when she un-democratically was anointed the candidate... do you still feel "joyous"? Sure, you're hoping that she will defeat Trump, but are you really feeling good about that? We all know that you would have used any means, even un-democratic means, to anoint someone you thought would defeat Trump. But, do you really think this is the person to do it? Really?

Kamala Harris's 'joy' is quietly turning to panic for Democrats

Over the past two weeks in my travels, it has been increasingly difficult to engage Democrats about the presidential race

October 8, 2024

In the days after Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential election to be replaced by Vice President Kamala Harris, there was real joy among Democrats across the country. That was not just a made-up media story, I saw it, but with less than a month to go, the joy is gone and a quiet panic is setting in.

In the first week of August I was, appropriately enough, in Harrisburg, Pa. and Democrats I spoke to were ebullient and effervescent at the change atop the ticket. One woman told me of calling her mother to celebrate together the chance at a Black female president.

Other left-leaning voters told me that they didn’t love how Biden had been shown the door but that they felt Harris could turn the race around and take down Donald Trump. For about a month, it sure looked that way.

5 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM KAMALA HARRIS' '60 MINUTES' INTERVIEW

In San Francisco, most voters I spoke to, red and blue alike, felt like Harris was likely to win, that the Democrats' stalled campaign had called AAA, gotten a jump, and was back on the road.

Harris had erased the lead Trump had over Biden, quickly eclipsing him as the frontrunner and much like a new restaurant opening in a small town, voters were eager to give her a try.

While Republicans and some in the media were frustrated by her unwillingness to do traditional interviews or hold so much as one press conference, her arrogant advisers smirked and said basically, "So what? She’s winning."

Well, she’s not winning anymore, and with her back against the wall appeared on "60 Minutes" this week, showing voters the real reason why she is camera shy when it comes to tough questions.

Asked if she and the Biden administration had lost America’s influence with our Middle East ally Israel, the veep once again proved herself to be a walking, talking salad bar, here is what she had to say:

"Well, Bill, the work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements by Israel that were very much prompted by, or a result of many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region."

KAMALA HARRIS SET FOR EXTREMELY FRIENDLY INTERVIEW BLITZ WITH 'THE VIEW,' STEPHEN COLBERT AND HOWARD STERN

The most generous interpretation of this odd assemblage of verbiage is that she is saying, "we’re trying," the more likely one is that she has no idea what she is talking about.

Over the past two weeks in my travels, it has been increasingly difficult to engage Democrats about the presidential race, much like a fan whose team has dropped a few playoff games and who is avoiding the sports page, they just don’t want to talk about it.

As one lifelong Democrat in Ohio who I did get to talk to put it, "I don’t know, she’s just kind of there."

It is hard to say exactly when the shine started wearing off the Harris penny, when joy gave way to frustration, but the failure of the Teamsters to endorse her, and the massive union’s internal polling showing Trump with a lead seems significant.

It was only after that, that I started hearing Democrats uttering words that seemed unthinkable back in August, namely, "Maybe we should have stuck with Biden." Ouch.

Biden himself even joked about it at a press conference, something he is at least still capable of, quipping "I’m back in."

Harris spokespeople are busy trying to talk Democratic voters down off the bridge, they insist she still leads in the polling averages, she has a war chest worth more than Fort Knox, and a ground game that Trump can only envy.

These points are all true, and the latter may prove decisive. The Harris movement may be Astroturf and not grassroots, much like her crowning as the nominee, but those busloads of supporters in matching teachers' union T-shirts are the same machine that gets out the vote.

But still, there is no mistaking that the thrill is gone.

It is not clear what Harris can do to reverse the clear trends favoring Trump today, "60 Minutes" wasn’t it, and her appearances on podcasts, late night shows, and "The View" make her look like she is pitching a new Rom Com, not running for president of the United States.

The only answer left may be for Harris to make this fight uglier and dirtier as the clock runs out. If the joy is gone, and it is, the only thing left to do may well be to rage and rage, against the dying of the light.

As much as I been hearing the lefts top echelon talking about how damaging free speech is this week, I most imagine they may be pushing that envelope in a desperate attempt to right the ship. Kerry outright said that free speech hampered his ability to govern. That made me set up straight. And Hillary…. Geez did her scowl just get louder with age or what? She scares the pants off me.

 

She is the last Human of the female gender that I would justify ANY reason for the Human male gender to be separated from his pants.

PS: Nor to I support ANY reason or desire to view her without similar female garments. I suspect she has always been classified as unemployed, in well paying venues that would pay for such female garment absence.

 

No, Kamala . . . you just need to
blow more hot air into that there balloon.​

 

This is an MSNBC interview with black men and women. They're telling it like it is....

Just HAD to throw this one in:

 

How about this for a campaign ad? This is absolutely BRUTAL. Thoughts......

The most appropriate method to view that Ad is imagining the subject as.....wigless....because perspective means something.

 

Don't believe me? Try it. I will wait.

 

Thank you, Thank you for giving me nightmares. I can't undo that vision. You're a meeaan man!

 

My goal is achieved.
