    I don’t know if anyone’s pointed it out yet. Look at how many people are coming out of the woodwork for this. I realize these things are always the same sort of incestuous love-in where the democrats’ in-crowd announce, gosh, they really like the candidate they’ve all been told to support. And Harris’ numbers haven’t moved past the initial bump from when Biden got a banker box of walking papers — despite the attempt to make it sound like Harris is, well, I guess “inevitable.” (Has that been used before?)

    I hope someone points it out to the democrats: You need to do more than just get the people who were already going to hold their noses and vote against Trump. You have to get the people who can win you the necessary Electoral College votes. And right now? The numbers should scare the hell out of you.
