Republicans Struggle to Find Harris Message

Punchbowl News: “What’s happened to Harris, Biden and the Democratic presidential ticket has no direct precedent. Democrats dumped Biden just months before the election, leaving Harris roughly 100 days to rally the party — and the nation — to her side.”

“But it’s also a problem for the GOP, which has spent the last couple of years probing every facet of Biden’s life. They dug into his family’s business deals. They considered impeaching him. They highlighted Biden’s every weakness, misstep and fumble. Now all of that’s changed.”

“Harris is a diametrically different challenge for Republicans. Biden is old and occasionally confused. Harris is younger and sharp. Biden is a white man. Harris is a woman of color. There are lots of firsts in Harris’ bio, of course.”
