Vice President Kamala Harris spent some time on "60 Minutes" talking about...well, I don't really know.

I know she was asked a bunch of questions and gave responses, but that didn't clarify anything for anyone, really. In fact, following up on the discussion here a couple of days later, I'm left wondering who in the world is voting for her.

RealClearPolitics shows the race between her and Donald Trump is neck and neck, with her having a slight edge but inside the margin of error, so someone is saying they support her, but I'm left wondering why.

I get that Donald Trump is loud, brash, and annoys a whole lot of people. I'm not a fan of his style of politics in the least, though at least his policies are generally a far cry better than anything the Democrats have offered. That's even true of the issues I don't agree with him on if I'm being fair, though that's all beside the point.

But while she was asked questions on "60 Minutes" and gave responses, she didn't answer all that much. It was just the latest example of word salad from the league leader in that category.

And this is just after Harris' interview on a podcast called "Call Her Daddy," which, let's just note, has nothing at all to do with parenting.

These, however, are two of the very few interviews the vice president has given, and based on the nothingness that comes out of her mouth, that was probably the smartest tactical decision her campaign could have made.

Harris also tried to pick a fight with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, saying he was ducking her hurricane-related calls.

Of course, President Joe Biden says he's talked to DeSantis and offered support should the state need it with Hurricane Milton bearing down on it.

This isn't the first time the president has stepped all over one of Harris' talking points, either. Couple these with her claims that she worked at a McDonald's that literally no one can prove she worked at. Not even a former coworker stepped up and said, "Yeah, I worked with her." Nothing.

The media is largely silent on fact-checking the next Anointed One that no one seems to actually like, but if Trump gets a little boisterous or his running mate, Senator JD Vance, engages in some hyperbole about eggs, everyone comes out of the woodwork to debunk what they said.

Which might well explain much of it. 

Kamala Harris lacks substance in almost every way, but because she's presented as if she's the messiah for democracy, a lot of the lemmings who simply do as the media tells them will trot out to vote. I just can't see how anyone can look at her, follow the campaign, and still decide she's the best choice.

It boggles the mind that anyone could be that stupid.

Then again, a lot of those folks don't know what bathroom to use or what a woman is, so I don't see why I'm so surprised.
