I'll Just Say.....This Debate Tonight Is A All-Or-Nothing Situation

 Kamala Harris has to do a 'tie' or better....for her campaign to sustain itself for the remaining 70-odd days.

If she stumbles around....does the goofy laugh....fails to state any policy of hers....spends the whole hour in some prosecution style on Trump....then the election is a failed mess for her to resolve (at least at this point).

Usually....you end up with marginal debate 'goofs' and neither does much of a job actually winning a debate.  

In Trump's defense?  This is a guy who reads the Wall Street Journal daily, and has insight into the top twenty-five stories of the day.  He's not stupid.

As much as Biden would want to say he 'bested' Trump in the debates....I considered them mostly a draw.  

Will the networks give up selling Harris's brand, if she stumbles around a good bit tonight?  On CNN's behalf....yeah, I think so.
