The fawning media coverage of late is at odds with Ms. Harris’s past performance and policy positions
U.S. President Joe Biden looks on as Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris speaks at Prince George's Community College in Largo, Md. on Aug. 15.Until President Joe Biden gave in to the pressure from within his own party to relinquish his quest for a second term, Kamala Harris had largely been written off, even by Democrats.
Ms. Harris, who, in 2021, had been entrusted by Mr. Biden to deal with the illegal immigration file, royally flubbed her first big interview as VP. When NBC’s Lester Holt asked why she had not visited the border, she defensively: “At some point, you know, I, we are going to the border. We’ve been to the border. So, this whole, this whole – this whole thing about the border. We’ve been to the border. We’ve been to the border.” Mr. Holt politely reminded her that she had not.
To be sure, the enthusiasm for Ms. Harris’s candidacy among the Democratic base is real. That a Black and South Asian woman has made it to the top of a presidential ticket is reason in itself for some giddiness. And polls show Ms. Harris is narrowly leading Republican nominee Donald Trump in most of the swing states that will decide the election. Mr. Biden was trailing him.
