Come on albaby, are you saying beating trump shouldn't be a layup? Can you think of any unforced errors trump forgot to make the past 60 days?

Yes, beating Trump isn't going to be a layup. Voters are unhappy with the economy, concerned about immigration, and the level of negative partisanship in the country guarantees Trump (or any GOP candidate) a pretty decent "floor" to start from. IMHO, Trump was the odds-on favorite to win the race coming out of the RNC.

Harris has managed to get the Democrats to perhaps the best possible place they could have gotten to by Labor Day. No guarantees she'll keep it up, but her management of the transition from Biden to her candidacy has been superlative. Biden's debate performance was so horrific that it became worth the risk of him stepping down even in favor of any Replacement Generic Democrat - but Harris' performance over the last month puts her leagues beyond the "RGD" standard.
