My take on the only race that matters

Trump’s hidden advantage is an electoral college that always tilts towards the GOP.

Harris’ hidden advantage is a GOTV effort that will decimate whatever the GOP has.

Why does the latter matter? Because her team is more motivated to beat him than his is to beat her. His team don’t hate Harris the way they hated Clinton.

Her team deeply, deeply hates him. That’s motivation.

    On Stephen Colbert, VP Harris was asked if she would do anything different from Boss Biden.
    She said No.
    This was the moment she lost the presidential election.

      Reminds of all the Times Biden said he would do things differently than Obama… OR LBJ different from Kennedy, or Bush different from Reagan or Nixon different from Eisenhower…

      On second thought… it doesn’t remind me of that at all… Because no successful VP becoming a President ever does that.

      This is another example of eccentric standards randomly fired at Harris simple because she plays the game like everyone else does. Gee, I can’t imagine why that happens.

        It would be relatively easy for VP Harris to say, the job of the VP is to offer advice to the President in private, and to support the President in public.

        But now that I’m running for President, I’d like to spend more attention to the economy, and here’s somethings I want to do.

        Even Justin Trudeau had figured that out when he was running for leadership of the Liberal Party.

    Warren, I’m on the ground have have family in multiple states. The lineups are unlike anything I’ve ever seen in either country in parts of various shades of color.

    I’m sure everyone in this threat knows what a high turnout usually means for the incumbent party.

  3. Sean says:

    The swing states are so close, it is not outside the realm of possibility that Harris could lose the popular vote and still win the Electoral College. And wouldn’t that be a wild ending to this election season. Not saying it is likely but if you do the simple math, it is 100% possible.

    • The Doctor says:

      That would kind of be a karmic revenge on Trump for 2016, when he won the EC and lost the popular vote.

      I agree it’s possible, because there’s been such significant realignment within the American electorate. Gender gap widening to a chasm, more latino and black men supporting Trump, etc.

    The economy is in bad shape and neoconservatives like Dick Cheney support Kamala. You never hear her talk about peace or lowering gas prices, and comparing Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler insulted many Jews. She sounds desperate, and all her celebrities and money probably won’t save her.

    Maybe all that hatred is the problem. Politicians in democracies aren’t supposed to hate each other.
