Cynically running out the clock has been the overarching principle of the entire abbreviated 105-day presidential campaign of Vice President Kamala Harris — ever since President Joe Biden dropped out in July.
Harris seems unwilling or unable to answer any impromptu question that she has not been previously prepped for. Her answers at the debate were memorized and canned. They did not address the questions asked.
Her single, 11-minute post-debate Philadelphia interview was a shipwreck of dodging and dissimulating.
As vice president, she must deny co-ownership of the unpopular record of the Biden-Harris administration.
Left unstated is that whether she wins the presidency — or loses it and continues as vice president for another three months — she will inevitably revert to her hard-core, lifelong leftist beliefs.
