With DNC over, real test for Kamala Harris' campaign now begins
Over and over, from the massive stage in the electric convention hall, the Democrats this week predicted that Kamala Harris would defeat Donald Trump. They described her as a historic figure, the embodiment of hope, 바카라 게임 웹사이트the president of joy.바카라 게임 웹사이트But amid the extraordinary optimism, former First Lady Michelle Obama offered a sober warning: 바카라 게임 웹사이트No matter how good we feel tonight or tomorrow or the next day, this is going to be an uphill battle.바카라 게임 웹사이트The word of caution was quickly drowned out by the excitement that overwhelmed the standing-room-only 17,000-person arena in downtown Chicago. But as activists, operatives and party leaders leave the Democratic National Convention and fan out across America, a stark reality exists: The real test for Harris has only just begun.More than a month after President Joe Biden stepped aside and endorsed her, Harris has barely started to outline detailed plans she would pursue as president to address the nation바카라 게임 웹사이트s biggest challenges 바카라 게임 웹사이트 immigration, crime and climate change, among them. She has yet to sit down for even one comprehensive media interview to face difficult questions about her flip-flops on policy in recent years, her leadership style and the focus on race and gender that looms over her historic candidacy.바카라 게임 웹사이트We can바카라 게임 웹사이트t put our heads in the sand. She바카라 게임 웹사이트s a Black woman. The bar is going to be higher for everything,바카라 게임 웹사이트 said John Anzalone, a pollster who has served the last three Democratic presidential nominees. 바카라 게임 웹사이트And guess what? That means, even mistakes. Mistakes are going to be magnified.바카라 게임 웹사이트At the same time, Harris바카라 게임 웹사이트 allies acknowledge she remains largely undefined in the minds of many voters, having operated in Biden바카라 게임 웹사이트s shadow for much the last four years.
