ANALYSIS: Harris's killer debate instincts made her an ideal VP pick for Biden

For months, as Joe Biden has been mulling over his potential vice-presidential picks, he's stuck with a line that's kept many political watchers guessing.

As a district attorney in San Francisco and then attorney-general in California, Harris wasn't known for pulling her punches. "She was extraordinarily nasty to Kavanagh," President Donald Trump said after the announcement before going on to compare her to senator Elizabeth Warren.But Harris has already pointed out that she made the comments about Biden during a debate, where candidates are there for the sole purpose of tough verbal contest.a good deal of water must have gone under the Biden-Harris bridge since the debate last year for them to have restored the "chemistry" Biden talked about.

Having Harris on team Biden will go some way in helping to balance the ledger when she goes up against the less dynamic Vice-President Mike Pence.Much more significant is the balance that Harris provides for Biden on the ticket more broadly.Kamala Harris is the daughter of an Indian-American mother and Jamaican-American father.

Both have been criticised for their roles in setting up the system of justice that Black Lives Matter protesters are trying to overthrow.As a senator in 1994, Biden authored a "tough on crime" law that became one of the key contributors to the mass incarceration of African Americans.

Look how's that working out

She alleged he was a racist and a sex offended. This is going to be so entertaining!

I love how all the anti trump people are so blinded by their irrational hate of trump they can’t see how flawed Harris is. She actually accused Biden of rape and racism. Not a great place to start. And if you can be bothered to read up on the crap she did in the 80s and 90s...

Who is Tulsi for $300 ? Bit sad that a Presidential candidate needs someone strong in the debates purely because he is off with the fairies

Nah....we all know why she’s been picked.

Wonder how she feels knowing she was picked because she is a black woman

The CCP will be happy if Biden gets in 🦠🦠🦠🦠🤠🖕

Trump will chew both of them up and spit them out. How can she run with Biden who she says is a racist and sexual predator.

horribleharris. Little benefit in watching ABC news as it's CNN lite

That’s why she turned to water when Tulsi Gabbard brought to everyone’s attention the fraud that she is?

Any one who watched Tulsi absolutely monster her would know ABC is full of it

Her gender and skin colour had more to do with it.

Don't matter, brown lady will still loose.

She did well here

As long as she doesn’t have to debate Tulsi.

Being black and having a vage also helped

The clickbait worked in this case, had to know which first year intern wrote this nonsense. That it was Washington bureau chief David Lipson is a crack up.

Tulsi Gabbard made mince meat out of her during Presidential Primary debates. what moron is writing this stuff ?

So killer they killed her votes and left her with zero delegates

Is that a parody account? AOC crushed Harris so comprehensively in a debate she withdrew from the contest.

What concerns me is all these cretins above ⬆️ that seem to be more fussed and engaged about US politics than the shambles that is politics in Australia

ABC is excited a far-left charlatan nominated to be Bidens running mate. Everyone knows what's the plan: get Biden elected by mail-in cheat, after a few months Biden resigns due to mental illness. And a trained Marxist VP takes over. She is everything today's Democrats are

Harris’S Too busy with your political agenda to care about spelling?

Has he sniffed her hair yet?

A pair of idiots thanks for the analysis

Harris’s family owned slaves in Jamaica. Cancel her?

I guess that’s why Harris performed so well in the Democratic Presidential primaries... oh wait.

Umm, this says different. Her run ended after this debate.

Tulsi Gabbard wiped the floor with her.

these takes, save me from them

Killer?

I look forward to the vice-presidential debate. Pence is screwed... and 'mother' will not be happy.

She's also a good liar. Not even African American …

Tulsi destroyed her. What are you talking about?

Clearly. Do you seriously think you're ever going to see Biden in a debate with Trump? Had to cover that deficiency somehow.

You want someone who is better at many things then you, it’s what a good team is. Look at Trump and Pence.......ummm

This is a picture of Ms Harris getting sworn into the Senate...in her speech she never mentions African American,but does mention her Indian-American roots...now that she’s running for VP it’s gonna be African American full throttle...
