• Kamala Harris’ campaign is demanding that microphones stay unmuted at the next debate.
  • It’s a break from Joe Biden, who insisted on microphone muting at the June 27 debate.
  • It indicates the vice president thinks outbursts from Trump would end up benefiting her.
  • I can’t wait until that first week of November when Beyoncé and Taylor Swift show up to help get out the vote.

    I was one of those that thought Joe Biden should stay in the race. And I’m so glad to be wrong.

      I was telling people we don’t really have a choice, since it’s ultimately something he gets to decide. I was surprised that he turned the pressure campaign into a fait accompli for Harris - which I doubt was the response they were hoping for.

      I thought he should stay in the race because I also thought the Democrats were incapable of immediately coalescing behind another single candidate. If I had know they were capable of it, I would have been all for it.
