Democrats hope echoes of Obama at Harris rally mean history could repeat in 2024

Vice President Kamala Harris is once again being compared to former President Barack Obama.

Harris’s rally in Atlanta, which she headlined along with rappers Megan Thee Stallion and Quavo, drew a crowd of 10,000 people at Georgia State University’s Convocation Center on Tuesday night for the best-attended Democratic event of the 2024 election cycle.

But it was not only the crowd size and celebrity appearances that inspired the Obama comparisons. It was also the audience’s receptiveness to Harris, engaging in multiple call and responses with her.

Harris yelled one of her rallying cries, “We are not going back!”, before the crowd joined in chanting.

The crowd did the same when Harris criticized former President Donald Trump for trying to back out of the September debate he agreed to with President Joe Biden before Biden was pressured into stepping aside as the Democratic presidential nominee last week over concerns regarding his age, mental acuity, and electoral prospects.

“Donald, I do hope you’ll reconsider to meet me on the debate stage because, as the saying goes, if you’ve got something to say, say it to my face,” Harris said.

Perilous situation for Trump. Even if he says what he thinks "to her face", which I doubt he would be shy about,  he'll be damned.

Damned if he does. Damned if he doesn't.    Does it really matter, at this point?
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
He who hath ears to hear, let him hear!

The urban enclaves are the territory Trump needs to influence.

Letting on that someone is claiming to be one thing when she is another could, in the time before the election, have a ripple effect that might weaken a Harris lead in all the 'safe' areas, and maybe overturn some of that. Fraud will be the determinant. Where it is, the 'D' will win. Where it is not, it will be more likely to go to the 'R'.

I do not see the harm in pointing out to people who have been told they are getting one thing and been served another that BOHICA! (bend over, here it comes again!)

For decades all but the most affluent in cities have been promised wonderful things, and got the short, dirty, end of the stick. We can only hope, as we look forward to people who don't know a steer from a cow choosing who runs this country, that a significant number wake up to the bullshit diet they have been fed.

Nothing is a given, but caving to and toadying up to the Left because they might be nasty is the stuff Chamberlains are made of. We don't need another iteration of shrinking violets in charge.

Face it, in the open, head on.

If they aren't scared of what WE say, then why should we be afraid of what they say.

I do NOT value their opinion, and tearing down the 'value' of their opinions is necessary to get people to think for themselves.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
