Vice President Kamala Harris' whirlwind campaign has broken records for fundraising, attracted thousands of volunteers, and turned the polls in some battleground states in her favor. With less than 80 days to go to the election, the party is hoping to ride good vibes to victory, and leave most policy details for later.
But splits over Gaza remain, Harris' economic agenda risks alienating independents, and political strategists worry the full power of Republican opposition is still to come.
