The Harris Campaign Runs into Reality

Harris now finds herself in a situation where her outreach to the right is failing while she is also alienating the left, having sacrificed much of her political capital to avoid confronting Joe Biden s legacy only to be saddled with it nonetheless. She is now forced to run on continuing Joe Biden s legacy having spent two months treating it as a record of failure. She also now must mobilize the left after having pandered to the right, while holding onto center-right swing voters. It is no wonder she is losing support from everyone.

Harris appears to be in the process of defeating herself. The question we should be asking is not whether she can turn this around, but whether, with early voting ongoing, her support has already been deflated too much for a recovery.

If the election were held on October 5, it seems likely Harris would have won. Were it held on December 5, it now seems almost certain Harris would lose. The question now is whether, on November 5, that crucial tipping point will have been reached.
