    Default Kamala Harris’ campaign is hit and miss. And her staff is way too touchy

    Willie's Brown weekly column on politics is always an informative read. He was also Harris' political mentor so he knows her well.




    Kamala Harris’ campaign is hit and miss. And her staff is way too touchy


    The last few days have been a clear example of why Sen. Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign is wobbling.

    Let’s begin with the former district attorney’s visit to her home ground for the 75th anniversary celebration of the Sun Reporter, the town’s African American newspaper.

    Harris worked the pre-party crowd with charm, sharing jokes and memories with everyone she came across.

    But when she took the stage, we got a 30-minute lecture on the importance of the First Amendment. An inspiring subject, but she went on way too long and without any reference to where she was or who was in the room.

    She might as well have been in New Hampshire.

    Speaking of New Hampshire, on Wednesday, when asked by reporters at a town hall meeting there for her thoughts about possibly sharing the Democratic ticket with former Vice President Joe Biden, Harris joked that Biden would make a fine running mate — for a ticket that had her at the top.

    “As vice president, he’s proven that he knows how to do the job,” Harris quipped.

    Great line, great delivery.

    But rather than leave it at that, her campaign people fumed about the subject even coming up. Some even hinted that reporters wouldn’t be asking if Harris were a white man.

    Campaign spokesman Ian Sams told Politico, “She’s running for president, period, and she intends to win.”

    Harris’ husband, Doug Emhoff, echo tweeted, “She’s running for president. Period.”


    Talk about overreaction. Let’s review: Biden is at 39 percent in the polls. Harris is at 7 percent. Yes, it’s early, but the idea of a Biden-Harris ticket — with Biden on top — is hardly off-limits.

    Harris needs to get back to who she is, remember where she is, and tell the support staff to chill out.
