I'm beginning to think Kamala may be on her way to the White House! ;D ;D ;D
All together now: "Walz 'n' Kamala, Walz 'n' Kamala, you're looking good for the Presidency!"

Lots of people tried.

I haven't heard any of it, but most of the YouTube channels that pop up in my feed (they all lean to the left, so not unbiased) that covered it describe it as something of a road crash.

I've listened to a bit but it's actually very boring.

Lots of chat from Trump supporters on social media that Harris has a major alcohol problem. Will interesting to see if Trump, or more likely Vance, says anything.

UK betting moves Republicans and Trump into odds on. Presumably on the RFK Jnr news.

My bout of insomnia this morning coincided with the run up to Harris's speech at the Democrat convention when the speculation of which speaker was going to top Oprah's appearance the previous night was getting frantic. The speculation had been inspired by Democrats creating the rumour.

Was it going to be Beyoncé, or Taylor Swift, Or Mitt Romney  or George W Bush, or Jimmy Carter!!!

But no one like that appeared. It's a small thing but it will be easy to mock as a lie.

BBC's summary of Harris's speech. The line about only ever having one client is a risky one. It highlights public service but also that she's always been paid by 'the people' too.

I'm not sure if she will square the Palestine circle some fine day but it looks impossible. I do wonder if that problem was what meant that Shapiro wasn't chosen as a running mate.

The sitting VP candidate for change. Good article which covers the strengths and weaknesses of this position. I'm not sure whether you can fight for everybody as one quote has it without fighting against some people though.

He remains on the ballot in Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin. In these in 'interesting times', I wonder if he will in the end influence the result because of that.

Given RFK's rant yesterday, there's a good chance he could do more damage than good to Trump's campaign. Here's hoping, anyway.

I can't see him losing Trump significant votes.
