JOY! IRRATIONAL EXUBERANCE SOARS TO NEW LEVEL. The polls suggest that many Democratic voters feel better about the new and untested candidacy of Kamala Harris than they did about the old and enfeebled candidacy of Joe Biden. But the polls cannot measure the off-the-scale enthusiasm for Harris and new running mate Tim Walz that is appearing every day in some of the nation’s biggest media outlets.
