    has been very quiet as Vice President

    This was my biggest concern, honestly.

    I’m glad to see she’s going right in strong, Biden stepping down had me incredibly nervous.

      Same. Apparently she was being very careful to not steal Biden’s thunder.

        That’s sorta the job of the VP as far as I understand. Lie low, cast tie-breaking votes, and be ready if the President croaks. In those respects, Harris has hit it out of the park

          This is like a soccer game, deep into the second half. It’s not decided, but so far, the Blues have been weak on the offense and it’s only a matter of time until the Reds’ constant barrage of attacks breaks through.

          Now the Reds have committed to their offensive star, they can’t switch any more, but the Blues have swapped out their aging defensive mid-field captain for an aggressive offense and she’s wasting no time leading those counter-attacks.

          Will it be enough? Time will tell. But at least it’s a game again, not a desperate attempt to hold on.

      Pleasantly surprised to be wrong about how Kamala would act.

      She was sorta handcuffed. If she spoke up more the Orange outfit would have accused her of operating Biden like a sock puppet.
