Blind Faith in Harris/Walz

Kamala Harris, a candidate who has yet to share her policy positions, has selected Tim Walz, an obscure Midwestern governor Democrats are being told is progressive.

  • An opponent s in my congressional race is a one-issue, Libertarian wanna-be, who boils all the world’s evil down to a single cause, the U.S.’ failure to conduct proper Congressional apportionment. My mind goes to similar places listening to Ted rail about our lack of parties.

    As with all political prognostication, I have a 100% success rate when I’m the one who judges whether I got it right. But I’m still very confident that Kamala Harris is going to lose this, almost as a perfect replication of how Hillary Clinton lost to Trump. Enthusiasm and jingoism carries you only so far. Can Harris keep the masses amped up long enough? The economy is still crap. People who are working two jobs and still counting out change on Thursday morning are not going to buy the false happy-happy much longer. Once Harris actually gets pinned in the spotlight she’s going to flop because she — just like Trump, just like Biden, just like Clinton (he and she), just like Obama, just like Cheney — has no solutions. The only solution is a massive wealth redistribution and a nationalization of a clutch of now-privatized industries. And it hasn’t gotten bad enough for the owned in Congress to turn on their masters.

    Not yet. (And now, sweet, sweet moderation, and the limbo therein.)
