Since the debate, Vice President Kamala Harris has received more attention than at any time since her early, rocky days as his No. 2 following President Biden's weak debate performance.

Vice President Kamala Harris wouldn't bite. 'Joe Biden is our nominee,' she told a CBS News reporter outside a San Francisco fundraiser Tuesday night amid signs the president's Democratic dam was breaking. The reporter tried another tactic, asking if she was ready to lead the country if needed. Nothing. 'I am proud to be Joe Biden's running mate,' she replied.

Though Biden promised her weekly lunches when she took the job, the meetings have been inconsistent, an indication that Biden has often leaned more on longtime aides than his deputy. But if she were to run for president, she could campaign the administration's legislative successes, including its environmental and infrastructure spending bills. Republicans would seize on her role as a key player in Biden's immigration policy.
