The big question going into Thursday night’s debate was whether Joe Biden, the clear front-runner in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination, would stumble. That turned out to be the wrong one. The right question was whether he had sufficient vigor in his stride.
And the answer came in watching Kamala Harris and Pete Buttigieg — two of the event’s standout performers — run articulate and impassioned circles around him.
(snip)
Harris had a fire that Buttigieg lacked, and it was mesmerizing. She challenged Biden not just on busing but on sloppy recent comments of his that seemed affectionate toward segregationists. She picked apart Trump’s boasts of a spectacularly booming economy, telling the right number of right anecdotes at the right time.
And she mixed strength with warmth and even humor. As candidates shouted over one another in a lunge for microphone time, she found a cranny of oratorical space in which to land a good line. “Hey, guys, you know what?” she said. “America does not want to witness a food fight. They want to know how we’re going to put food on their table.” It neatly pegged men as compulsive interrupters — a leitmotif of the previous night’s debate — while flying a feminist flag less strenuously than Kirsten Gillibrand, at the lectern beside hers, did.
Imagine a Harris-Buttigieg ticket, and not only what a wealth of poise but what a double scoop of precedents that would be. ...
… and they should leaven that fantasy with a reality check about how far to the left Harris in particular has moved. She was one of just two candidates on Thursday night who said that she wanted to do away with private health insurance. Sanders was the other.

A front and back hole ticket?
Great. An Anchor Baby who got started in politics literally under Willie Brown (unless she wanted to be on top) and a boy and his hubby.
A match made about 90 miles from Key West...
He might be a plausible pol, but she is just AWFUL.
The fringe groups have completelybtaken over the Dim party. And, a Harris Butt(whatever) ticket proves it.
ILLINOIS Democrat Dream Ticket
Harry Ass and the Butt
The nickname for Harris/Boot-edge-edge ticket would be “ Suck and Blow”. The former Mayor of San Francisco, Willie Brown approves of this message:
“Former S.F. Mayor Willie Brown writes about dating Kamala Harris, appointing her to posts”
Just the innumerable bad (and frequently explicit!) jokes would quickly end the campaign’s chances.
Mental illness is the plague of our era.
The DemonRAT party is proof.
She was on his staff.
“double scoop of precedents that would be”
The nyt, like most insane leftists, doesn’t care about competency, but is obsessed with identity politics.
They are going for the “first black woman president” & “first gay vice president” moniker.
To us it sounds awfully stupid, but look at how many Liberal sheeple the Left lined up to vote for Obama, just so they could pat themselves on the back for electing the “first black president”.
What the Left and the media are always selling is images, and sometimes the images win; substance be damned.
This is the perfect ticket to step on the accelerator of the #WalkAway movement. They will drive everyone away except militant fems, homos, trannies, and hollyweird celebs. Literally nobody else will vote for this ticket. Not even illegals if they are paid to.
So the debate will morph into America’s got talent.
It will require props.
A garden hose and a golf ball.
Which one can outdo the other?
If there are enough freaks in this country to elect that pair, then it’s finished.
Haha
Exactly what we need night now. A California Democrat and a shallow, lazy Democrat Mayor.
Check the success of both types with the facts of their performances.
