With just two months to go until the US elections, Democratic candidate Vice President Kamala Harris has failed to seal the deal. Everyone knows it, and no-one on the progressive side of things wants to admit it. Late this morning, Australian time, she will go up against Donald Trump in their first and possibly only presidential debate. Will this change the momentum, or create some?
It is going to need to. Harris is a distinguished politician, a compelling speaker at times, a woman of colour with a hero story that connects to many millions.
