In the spotlight of recent political happenings lies Kamala Harris who, despite her rapid ascendancy within the Democratic Party and her appointment as vice president, failed to clinch even one primary delegate in the 2020 Democrat primaries. This fact resurfaced largely due to a blistering critique from Tulsi Gabbard, then a fellow Democratic candidate whose mellow Hawaiian charisma took aback many when she scrutinized Harris’s term as attorney general of California. Gabbard’s impassioned decimation played no small part in Harris bowing out even before a single vote was cast; compelling video evidence supports these assertions.

Yet even with such stark revelations, tremors of trepidation seem to infiltrate Democrats’ ranks regarding Vice President Harris’ potential nomination for trying to fill presidential shoes. Although public sentiment seems ablaze with enthusiasm for her fast-tracking political journey, there exists an undercurrent of anxiety stemming from several reasons – primarily her lack of experience as a candidate and present challenges that might impede her winning against sharp contenders like former President Trump.

For many party supporters, however, this anxiety gets subsumed in their collective sigh of relief over President Biden’s decision to forego reelection bids. Democratic lawmakers are rallying behind Harris fervently hoping that she will energize democratic donors while appealing to young and minority voters.

Despite this display of support, it’s hard not to question if those wearing Democrat badges overlook the scrupulous examination of Harris’s credentials. Her record certainly comes under heightened scrutiny with an increasing number of party supporters showing concern about her ability to build strong rapport with blue-collar constituency or union voters – a demographic that played a crucial role in tipping favor against Trump in key states like Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin during the 2020 elections.

Why? One plausible reason is because these demographics gravitate more toward conservative viewpoints which significantly differ from Harris’s far-left leaning perspectives. Some opinions categorize her as being even further left than Bernie Sanders, which could explain their interesting turn towards Trump’s America First policy.

The fact that all this is viewed with wariness by Democrats is evidenced by an anonymous Democratic senator’s assessment that her campaign skills may not match up to those of Biden in his heydays. Besides her questionable campaigning prowess and her distinction of being hard-to-the-left among the far-leftists, the critical observation remains that she may not be as adept at articulating without a script as some skilled orators like Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton.

Despite these pitfalls, it will be foolhardy to underestimate Harris just yet. She still enjoys considerable support from nearly one-third of voters who prefer democratic candidates and has a wealth of adulation from the traditional media firmly in her corner. Besides, there are whispers about possible ballot-stuffing in key precincts, indicating a possible windfall for Harris.

Therefore, potential opposition campaigns like Trump’s need to keep their guard up and play the long game—vigorously preparing for what seems to be a tight political race led no less by Kamala Harris.
