While Presidential Debates can move the needle several percentage points Veep debates never do. But they can be more entertaining, but usually only when at least one of the VP candidates are inexperienced (e.g. Quayle, Palin). Neither Pence nor Harris for in to that category. Each will give their base some good red meat to chew on, but I don’t expect much that will change anyone’s minds, even the mythical undecideds. And I doubt Warren would be any different.
This race will tighten, but likely not from any of the usual set pieces, 7nless Biden or Harris do or say something that provides extra cover for suburban white women to stay with Trump. With Trump, it will be social media and free traditional media coverage of the outrageous things he says and does at his rally’s, and voter suppression and Dirty tricks domestic and foreign that will tighten the race.
