    To be fair the Harris campaign hasn’t been able to get traction.

    It’s infuriating Harris is taking about medical records while Trump is planning to undermine the results.

        No she’s not.

        There’s every chance she’s going to lose the election to a criminal, fascist, rapist, lying, insurrectionist octogenarian who’s only policies are lynching political opponents and tanking the global economy with a tarrif war.

        I like Harris immensely and I think she would make a fine president, and maybe go a long way to healing the yawning chasm between progressives and conservatives.

        However given the remaining likelihood that she will lose against such an opponent you have to agree that her campaign hasn’t really gotten traction.

          No, I actually don’t agree respectfully. I wholeheartedly disagree. I think she’s on fire.

            It’s like you haven’t watched any commentary at all.

            I desperately want her to win but every indication is that she has even odds.

              Sounds like you’ve been listening to the wrong people instead of watching her interviews and rallies for yourself.

                Come on. If you want to evaluate the effectiveness of Harris’ campaign, should you listen to her talk, or listen to commentary from a variety of sources?

                  To evaluate the effectiveness, you would listen to the people, of course. What “sources“ are you talking about? News pundits? Because that would be a terrible metric.

                    That doesn’t make any sense.

                    How can you evaluate how well the voting public is resounding to Harris by listening to Harris talk?

                    If only there were some way you could kind of collate the thoughts of voters and try to predict which way they were going to vote. Like a statistical analysis of voters opinions. You could call it an election survey. You could do it every week or so to get a trend showing the comparative effectiveness of each party’s strategies.

                    I mostly listen to the British and Australian public broadcasters. Both have journalists in the US. No media is completely free of bias but these are pretty good imo.

                    Regardless, I challenge you to find a commentator who’s saying Harris is on fire.
