Mary Bruce: The Harris Campaign Is ‘Cautiously Optimistic’ Going into Election Day

‘It’s been described as nauseously optimistic, and I like that’

EXCERPT:

BRUCE: "Look, they know and they will stress straight off the bat, this is going to be close. But they are cautiously optimistic. It’s been described as 'nauseously optimistic,' which may be my new favorite political phrase of this cycle. And part of the reason they feel so good is because they don't think that weave is obviously helping Donald Trump. They think that all of his rhetoric over the last week, whether it be, you know, saying he's going to protect women whether they like it or not, the violent rhetoric about Liz Cheney, the vile racist rhetoric at that rally, they think all of that just reinforces Kamala Harris's closing argument, which is this big pitch for unity, her promise to be a president for all Americans. And I’m told they are actually seeing signs in their internal data, especially in some of the key swing states, that it is having an impact on those critical undecided voters, that tiny sliver of voters that everyone is after, that they are really turned off by what they are hearing from Donald Trump.”
