Vice President Harris will get much attention on Wednesday when she sits for a rather short interview with Fox News in Philadelphia. Obviously, Ms. Harris needs to do well, and that will require her to answer directly, not rummage around trying to avoid specifics, as she has been doing.
Bret Baier will be the interrogator, and this is not an easy gig. FNC viewers will expect Mr. Baier to be "tough", that is telling the VP she is not addressing the issue if she dodges.
Baier is not an opinion guy, so no one should expect a confrontation. But he must accurately report exactly what Ms. Harris is doing. And again, if she dodges.
I had a similar experience with Senator Barack Obama in 2008. He agreed to sit down with me in York, Pennsylvania, to gin up his campaign against Senator John McCain. But Mr. Obama is far more articulate than Ms. Harris and understood he was in a No Spin Zone. So he answered the questions and the chat went well. No one was arrested.
On Wednesday, there will be more pressure on Baier than Kamala. He MUST pose fact-based questions on the border, inflation, Afghanistan leading to overseas chaos. No cupcakes.
As I said - tough spot.
See you this evening for the No Spin News.
