Kamala is going to have to prosecute herself for murdering Biden

Agree or disagree?

[hlthe2b]

1. I think all those predicting a mortal blow are projecting greatly.

Kamala backtracked quite a bit in her after debate interview with Tweety Bird. I think she knows she went too far. Biden has a lot of supporters and that includes older African Americans who lived through the period and recognize the complexities--as well as Biden's full record as a civil rights supporter.

5. She did well with the "food fight" break in and her comments after that...

She did well with the "food fight" break in and her comments after that... showed empathy and smarts, and got a great return from the audience.

Then she went over the top with her weak sauce "hurtful words" comment.

I guarantee no one she ever prosecuted was convicted by a jury because she argued they said something that upset her.

[UniteFightBack]

9. Yeah the food fight comment was great...and then she went and raided the fridge and

started throwing.

[RHMerriman]

15. Indeed...

Indeed...

If she hasn't broken 10 percent with AA voters in a few weeks, it's over.

with the "food fight" comment to set the stage for her Biden confrontation.

[RHMerriman]

25. Yeah, the whole thing was a little too contrived for my taste...

I like candidates who don't complain.

[UniteFightBack]

2. Disagree. This whole thing is over the top....from start to finish. nt

3. Joe got dented

but I'd be surprised to find that polls show that he was run off of the road.

[BlueTsunami2018]

4. Utterly ridiculous.

She flat out lied about what he said.

[StarfishSaver]

8. What did she say that was a lie?

[Clash City Rocker]

6. No, Joe is fine

Most of his damage was self-inflicted, due to how he tried to justify his past decision. He could have just said he made a mistake and he now sees the issue differently, and that would have been it.

Kamala had every right to respond as she did; without bussing, she wouldn’t have been on that stage. But she clearly stated afterward that she has great expect for Biden. I think she handled it well, and I don’t think this will damage the Biden campaign all that much. Joe is much more than one decision or one statement.

16. Harris' parents were both PHds, she lived in Berkeley as a child, and graduated from

Harris' parents were both PHds, she lived in Berkeley as a child, and graduated from high school in Westmount, Quebec, which is one of the richest neighborhoods in Canada...

She probably would have been on the stage.

[NanceGreggs]

7. What bullshit.

No one landed a fatal blow tonight, nor did anyone shoot themselves in the foot.

[still_one]

10. I agree Nance no damage, however I did stub my toe tonight

[NanceGreggs]

11. Ouch!

[still_one]

12. ...................

[Celerity]

13. LONG way to go, but she got some serious body blows in, & Biden's ridiculous 'NRA is not the enemy'

was a self-inflicted headshot.

Bennet lit Biden up too, with the (to paraphrase) 'it was a terrible deal you made with McConnell because the tax cuts were permanent' jab. Even hapless Bernie got in his only good shot (about the Biden's Iraq War vote).

Not a good night for Joe.

Still, it is a looooooong campaign, and he is still the front-runner.

[EffieBlack]

14. Time will tell whether she damaged Biden

But she did very well for herself by demonstrating the ability to take on the biggest player in the room with a determination and fearlessness that was really impressive.

[Pachamama]

17. In the end, it will be Harris that falls on her sword she pulled against Biden tonight...

I think she made a big mistake in what she did taking on Biden.

She wounded him but didn't murder him. And in the end it will be her that is more wounded.

That is my prediction. I am so disappointed in her and think she might have a little bump amongst black voters but then overall support and donations will drop.

Biden will survive. She likely won't.

[Celerity]

18. I think your are being far too pessimistic about Sen. Harris.

[Pachamama]

20. I know her and because of that I feel very confident in my statement and its also why I am so

disappointed.

The only way I see her coming out of this is if Biden and her actually figure a way to make peace and instead work together.

We shall see.

[RHMerriman]

27. Yeah, no shit... I agree with you

Yeah, no shit... I agree with you

Eyes on the prize, Senator.

Self-indulgence from someone whose parents were BOTH Cal Phds is a little much.

Not a winning prospect.

[JI7]

19. can you explain how or why you think this will happen ?

[mcar]

22. Oh good grief, talk about hyperbole

Harris challenged Biden. She came out ahead, in many, but not all, minds. I was impressed with her entire debate performance, not just that one interchange.

But Biden was not mortally wounded. He had a bad night; she had a good one. The campaign goes on.

[dem4decades]

28. Well said.

[BannonsLiver]

23. Not sure but I detest over the top hyperbole like that tweet.

When did we as a culture lose our ability to articulate our thoughts without sounding like fucking morons.

[peggysue2]

24. Disagree

Joe Biden's death has been greatly exaggerated!

[Mme. Defarge]

26. Will she have commemorative shirts

to sell at the trial?

I would go for “murder in the first” based on premeditation.

[dlk]

29. Sounds Like a Trauma Drama from a Very Sensitive Man-Where's His Fainting Couch?

If the situation had been reversed, would there still be the same degree of umbrage?

[JustAnotherGen]

30. I don't think so

They are both in my top 5. This wasn't a death blow.

[Polly Hennessey]

31. She came across as a bit strident

and loud. I don’t believe she was/is the poor little girl waiting for the bus that she actively wants all to believe. After watching her performance, I believe her fleeting moment of glory will fade. Harris and Gillibrand side by side going over their Franken notes.
