Kudos to Andrew and Bill for your commentary. As a history guy I love the references to the Lincoln-Douglas Debates. Harris should certainly debate the Orange Menace at least once, and depending on how it goes, maybe twice, if Trump is man enough to accept the challenge ~ a highly doubtful proposition. The most effective things that Harris and Walz can do now is to 1) "Keep up the pressure," to channel a certain British Defense Minister circa 1982, by maintaining their own enthusiasm and that of their crowds (read; "Joy!"), and 2) Maintain the sure-footed campaign that has been so remarkable in these last three weeks. Be careful to stick to the script, no policy gaffes, be careful and well-spoken in the FEW interviews that they should do.

*Not a native ~ Grew up in Falls Church, VA., an old observer of politics since the Watergate Hearings (John Dean!) and the Nixon resignation!
P.S. Old enough to remember when the "dog days of August" was a real thing!! :) (Those days are actually long gone, but in any event) ~ Boy, not THIS year! Couldn't even go on vacation and not feel like missing out on head spinning political news.
