Playbook: “Now three weeks into her campaign, and with the Democratic National Convention just a week away, Harris has ridden a wave of base enthusiasm and swing-voter relief to put the presidency back into play.”
“What she hasn’t done yet is settle on a plan for governing, except in the broadest of strokes. Her stump speech has framed the campaign as a ‘fight for the future’ without saying much about what precisely that future would entail.
