Conservatives: Be Quiet, Be Nice to Kamala (for 26 Days)

It would be a salutary event for our Democratic friends to nominate an unpopular buffoon with appallingly bad campaigning skills. Let's not interfere with that. Here is a scary thought from the estimable Byron York:

The Democratic National Convention is scheduled to begin on Aug. 19. That’s 27 days away. Remember how much has changed in just the 10 days since July 13 — the Trump attempted assassination, the Republican National Convention, Biden’s withdrawal, and the Democratic embrace of Harris. Is there any reason to believe that things will settle down now? More specifically, there is plenty of time for Democrats to rethink their rush to Harris. How will she do on the campaign trail? What will the polls show once enough time has passed for a reliable measurement of public opinion? How will Harris wear on voters? By the time Democrats meet in Chicago, there might be great happiness with Harris. On the other hand, there might be growing doubts. The point is, there is time for change between now and the convention. On Tuesday, Trump campaign pollster Tony Fabrizio released a memo predicting a media-driven “Harris honeymoon” over the next few weeks. But couldn’t the opposite occur, too — that after an initial mindless euphoria, some Democrats could develop a Harris hangover?

I would like to go on record that as a Republican, I am completely terrified of a juggernaut like Ms. Harris getting the nod. She is a virtual shoo-in, an unstoppable force and, I fear, the strongest possible Democratic candidate. Like you Democrats, I am unpersuaded by all the fake videos that take her remarks out of context. Please don't nominate her, Democrats.
