Ignore the Media Haters. The ‘Harris Honeymoon’ Is Far From Over

I’ll forever have mixed feelings about this current campaign, but it does have something to offer that actually feels forward facing. In this moment, that’s something I’ll take.

In fact, the reality is this: The Harris-Walz campaign is not the big vibe soufflé that some commentators are making it out to be. It is a detailed, already very policy-rich campaign that poses both a very clear vision for the future and the reasons to oppose the hugely dangerous and destructive policy proposals of her opponents. The story is not about some sugar high following the entrance of a “new face” (who has been around for years) in the race. It is about the enthusiasm people feel for having a candidate that can bring an end to the Trump-MAGA threat and deliver on the promise of a better future for all Americans
