The former California Attorney General and US Senator just does NOT click with the public…
So Far
She IS trying to find a path to elevate her acceptance ….
Backstage, as she prepares for a not-so-intimate “fireside chat” about gun safety in front of hundreds of people, Kamala Harris is unscripted and seemingly at ease, no notes or teleprompter in sight.
She’s comfortable offering condolences and counsel to those who’ve lost loved ones to gun violence — who stream in wearing red shirts emblazoned with “Moms Demand Action” or “Students Demand Action.” She holds their hands and looks into their eyes. “We speak their names,” she whispers to one woman. She gently reassures a man clearly anxious about where to stand in the photo line.
All eyes are on her. But that’s been true of Harris for a while now. And the view has not often been kind.
Her tenure as Joe Biden’s No. 2 has not been known for relaxed and warm moments like those in Chicago. Instead, Harris’ term has largely been marked by stilted performances at public events, at odds with the uninhibited interrogator she was known as in the Senate. They’ve fueled whispers about whether she’ll be a drag on the reelection ticket as the 2024 race heats up.
Now her political future, and quite possibly the success of the Democratic ticket in 2024, hinges on a simple question: Is it possible for Kamala Harris to make a second impression?…
Note….
Of course?
We don’t want talk about this …
But if Joe Biden CANNOT finish his 2nd term in office ?
Vice President Kamala Harris would become the FIRST WOMAN President to finish out his term…

Of all the previous VPs I can remember Harris isn’t any less liked than any of them save Biden.
GHW Bush=called “wimp”
Quayle–called a “dope”
Gore–“Boring”
Cheney–Shot his buddy in the face
Pence–“mother”?
Biden was pretty popular by comparison but still less so than his boss.

The VP’s ARE generally background music…..

Probably not a major issue but it will be talked about.
