It Didn’t Have to Be Kamala Harris

“I’m not quite ready to say ‘I told you so,’ but … Didn’t I? Yes, I know: Both administratively and politically, it was easier to nominate Harris than to nominate somebody else. The easy thing is not often the smart thing. … I’m not calling it for Trump. In fact, my own sense (NB: I have been burned before!) is that Harris is likely to eke out a very close win on Election Day. If she loses, Tim Walz is going to have a lot of spare time on his hands, while Gov. Shapiro will be very, very circumspect. If Trump loses, it will be because the Republican Party currently is dominated by people whose main interest is in hoovering money out of the rubes in the red hats rather than in winning races.” (10/23/24)
