True-believer progressives can’t do it, i.e. move to the center. They think it’s immoral. They fear the wrath of fellow progressives. They seem clueless that other valid worldviews exist out there. But Kamala Harris? She’s tacking to the center fast – and it’s a politically smart move that may win her the presidency and prevent Donald Trump from regaining the White House. Peggy Noonan has more on Harris’s “bold to the point of shameless” shift.
Personally, I love her shameless shift to the center. She’s doing exactly what she needs to do to win a general election.
Update – She’s driving the right crazy: “Kamala Harris’s Border Chutzpah.”
Update II — I should point out Noonan has legitimate concerns about Harris, including this one: “People will continue to wonder how liberal she is, and how strong she is, but I think an equally or more important question will be how serious she is. Does she think seriously, deeply, soberly? I haven’t seen her betray this tendency. “
