"I guess that means the writing's on the wall and it's just a waiting game until Kamala Harris becomes the first female president of the USA!?"

I hope so. But things could go awry for VP Harris. I hope her team is working on strengthening her weaknesses - via practice - and that she's receptive to it. From my limited exposure to VP Harris answering tough questions, it appears that she either gets her hackles up or she answers in circles. She cannot afford to do that in the debate or interviews. Her answers must be crisp, direct, reasonable and placing her in the best light. This is not rocket science, but generally politicians seem averse to the art of answering tough questions properly.

Trump, could possibly outperform VP Harris. When he debated Pres. Biden awhile back, Trump's demeanor was reasonable and he pretty much stuck to the issues presented. Much of what he said was false, but he wasn't fact checked in real time. And unfortunately, Trump is held to a different standard. If VP Harris said half the things Trump says, the press would be all over her and Trump would far surpass her.

I'm glad VP Harris has some Obama people on her campaign team.

I believe Bob in the south they are renaming Round-Abouts to Harris-Loops.

Anyways, from my standpoint I don't remember an election where one candidate doesn't know when to shut up and the other doesn't know what to say.
