I just hope Harris runs a better campaign this time - that's what sunk her in 2020.

Democrats are taking a big risk here - they're giving away a big chunk of the incumbency bias, and that historically has paid dividends for whichever party is in control, and they're changing things up relatively late in the game, which is going to make it a challenge to rally support. That said, they're taking a big angle of attack - Biden's age and continued mental capacity - off the table, and could very easily flip that on the Republicans now that they have a candidate in her 50s going up against someone who would be in his 80s before his term ends (and the contrast of a young woman of colour against yet another crusty old white guy is the exact contrast the Dems need). Harris *should* tear Trump apart in a debate, if he bothers to show up - former prosecutor against a guy who can barely string a coherent sentence together should be an absolute romp - and that will hopefully pull people back onboard.

Good luck, Dems. Don't fuck this up.
