For anyone who spends an inordinate amount of time on Twitter, it’s really easy to catch that sinking feeling of fatalism. I have caught myself doing and feeling the exact same way.

Virtually every single fundamental and intangible favors the Harris campaign. Almost every single one. If this were a sports matchup, and there was one team that had almost every single fundamental and intangible in its favor, and the other team was becoming more and more unhinged and untethered by the passing day, we would all have no problem whatsoever acknowledging and believing that the team with all of the intangibles and fundamentals in its favor, was a solid favor to win.

Harris is that favorite. Now let’s go run through the damn tape.
