Harris hopes to make 'magic' with black women in SC
Aside a wall of 2-foot-tall letters spelling out “Black Women Lead,” behind a podium bearing a “Black Women for Kamala” sign, Kamala Harris made an appeal Saturday to black women in South Carolina, a contingency whose support she sees as crucial to the viability of her presidential candidacy.
“When we talk about black girl magic, we know that it is something special,” Harris told the crowd of about 300, most of whom were black women, in a ballroom at Benedict College, a historically black institution in downtown Columbia. “But that magic is born out of hard work. ... It didn’t just magically appear. ... We worked hard for that.”
She's got it all wrong! She should embrace 'white magic" like Barry did. In a rush to prove they’re not racist white Americans flocked to the polls in droves, tripping over themselves, to get to the voting booth in order to elect a black community organizer only to discover he was more worthless than used toilet paper.

Senator Kamala Harris of California took her most drastic action yet on Wednesday to salvage her once-promising, now-languishing presidential bid, laying off staff members at her Baltimore headquarters and elsewhere, and redeploying others to Iowa, where she is looking to rejuvenate her campaign. When those cuts arrived, members of the senior staff were enraged because they did not know the extent of the layoffs until after they happened.

The moves are the most serious reboot from any Democratic campaign that was once in the top tier, but they may not be enough to ensure a turnaround for Ms. Harris. Even as she commits to campaigning aggressively in Iowa, she is keeping up a busy national fund-raising schedule to avoid falling further behind financially; in July, August and September, Ms. Harris spent nearly $1.25 for every dollar she raised.
The restructuring came on the same day that a new poll, from USA Today/Suffolk, showed Ms. Harris dropping
“Campaigns are about tough choices and this one is no different,” Ms. Harris’s communications director, Lily Adams, said on Twitter. “Kamala & this team launched with 1 goal in mind: win the nomination & take on Trump. It wasn’t to just participate. We’re going to make the hard choices necessary to put us in a place to achieve that goal.”
Ms. Harris’s struggles are another sign that the once-crowded Democratic field is increasingly sorting itself into haves and have-nots, with Senator Elizabeth Warren of of IND ., separating themselves from the pack.
Ms. Harris is one of two black senators in the field — the other is Cory Booker of New Jersey, who is also ranking low in the polls — and some Democrats have lamented that what began as the most diverse Democratic field in history has narrowed to a top tier that is all white. Others say the nonwhite candidates themselves are responsible and point out that Mr. Biden is a front-runner because he has amassed black supporters at the expense of challengers like Ms. Harris.
Flip a coin. Who's the next one to go? Heads Harris...
