Half of the fun of watching the Harris campaign over the course of the few months since her anointment has been the flailing about trying to define a sense of purpose other than just getting her elected.
The Tao of Kamala, if you will. The WHY of her candidacy and her supposed life of service. The justification for allowing voters to grant her advancement to continue to the highest office in the land, sitting in what passes for our throne of ultimate power.
What her handlers trotted out initially?
We tell you she is joyful. We need joy in our lives, and thus, Kamala is preordained to rule.
HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY
Well, splat went that.
There was a "She is Joe Biden's competent Girl Friday" phase, before there was a "Joe who?" and then back to, "Nope. Wouldn't change a thing Joe and I did." For his part, Joe maintains they've been joined at his arthritic hip the entire time.
How's that for a visual?
It didn't work for voters, either.
No matter what rainbow colors the Harris campaign chose to try to wrap itself in during any particular month trying to appeal to voters, one thing, one theme has remained constant from the very beginning. It has become ever more strident throughout the entire exercise, with the entirety of the Democratic machine climbing on the Harris mantra train.
DONALD TRUMP IS HITLER
Vice President Harris: “Trump said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had. He wants a military that is not loyal to the Constitution, but loyal to him... This is a window into who Donald Trump really is from the people who know him best” pic.twitter.com/wJsPTcTWM6

They've gotten ever more passionate about selling the message as the time crunch to the election shrunk.
It's kind of ironic that Kamala calls Trump literally Hitler, and then the next day gives a speech where she uses almost the same mannerisms and tone of Hitler to the point that if you place a mustache and an red armband on her, many people would have trouble seeing the… pic.twitter.com/3AMG2DURzw

Hysterical boosters took to painting every last Trump supporter with that same overly broad hyperbolic brush. The "deplorables" of yesteryear fell to the wayside in search of ever more persuasive, scathing epithets to smear half the country with.
Never forget how much Democrats like Kamala, Walz, and Biden hate you.

Okay. We got the message, guys.
We heard it...over and over again.
And have heard it over...and over...for the past, what? Almost eight years?
How you feel is not news to us. The fact that you're so publicly rude and blatant about it is kind of a bummer, but par for the course.
We will always remember the scorn, the hate-filled rhetoric...you had better believe we will. We have decided to play based on your #rulez.
I have no doubt, based on the squawking outrage the few times you've run up against them, it will be the reality check shock of a lifetime to encounter what you've been dishing out.
I can't wait.
Ask the "deplorables" lady how it feels being so superior when you have to ask those very same voters you despise for votes.
In 2020 early voting, FL Dems outvoted Republicans by 113k. Today, they trail by nearly 1 million. Trump will win Florida by double digits. Harris sent Hillary to Tampa today (why?!) where she held a “rally” in a convention meeting room with 150 people:

As for the Harris campaign, as I posted a week ago, any one of us could easily script one of her interviews in our sleep:
Random Interviewer: Vice President Harris - what's your plan to secure the border?
Kamala: I was raised in a middle-class family...
Random Interviewer: Madame VP, I asked specifically about the border...
Kamala: TRUMP IS HITLER
Trump's Hitler and he's mad, and did she mention he's unhinged?
The WaPo wants to make sure you remember.

And while CNN won't come straight out and call him Hitler, they can do some contrast work so you get the idea.

Politico was all in, reporting on Harris's East Lansing, MI rally, emphasizing all the buzzwords that have been a constant and oppressive refrain from the vice president's campaign. Look at the projection and language the Politico reporter uses describing the Madison Square Garden rally.
...In a race Democrats are working to make a referendum on Donald Trump, it’s the negative headlines about Trump they believe are finally breaking through to voters.
...“The stakes have just been clarified more and more for all voters, and for young voters, too,” Michigan state Rep. Noah Arbit said, arguing that Trump’s recent comments have broken through to younger voters because they are “legitimately so shocking.”
“I think it’s been a tailspin since Madison Square Garden,” Arbit said.
Democrats are hopeful that Trump’s racist New York City rally, when a pro-Trump comedian called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage,” helped Harris close the gap with late-deciding voters, a point senior Harris officials argued over the weekend. They cited internal campaign data that they said showed the vice president winning late-deciding voters by a double-digit margin. The New York Times/Siena College poll, released on Sunday, also found those voters who had settled on their vote recently backed Harris by a double-digit advantage.
Michigan state Sen. Darrin Camilleri said he believes Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden “cut through the noise in a way that nothing else has and voters of color were reminded how racist Trump and his supporters really are.”
None of the quotes about "racist" Trump are from Harris, though. The author talks about "thunderous" applause and an "ear-splitting" rally, but there seem to be no direct quotes from the candidate during the rally.
Did Harris have nothing to say about Hitler incarnate?
Guess what - she didn't.
Harris has decided it's time to end on a positive note, doncha know.
A senior Harris campaign official notes that Harris’ East Lansing, Michigan rally today was the first rally since Harris became the Democratic presidential candidate where she did not mention Trump by name.

The strategy is, “Closing fully positive,” the official said.
Forty-eight hours before this whole thing is over, and now girlfriend wants to act like she's got something to offer besides name-calling.
HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY
Excuse me if I lift a cynical eyebrow.
Changing the strategy at the last minute is not the sign of a winning campaign,

The last-minute switcheroo from Hitler to "Who?" won't save her campaign even if they plaster it with 24/7 coverage.
What am I saying - they were already doing that. They're out of options.
As none of us were buying the counterfeit goods she was peddling, to begin with, it's just one more Kamachameleon move with nebulous plans and squishy woke 'our agency' argle-bargle.
Not falling for the progressive unicorn farts in the tailpipe.
I want my country back, with Americans first and our flag waving over it all.
