Kamala Harris taking a little heat in New York City for declining an invitation to attend the annual Al Smith dinner.  That's the fat cat Catholic fundraiser designed to bring both political parties into a lavish room in order to gently mock them.

Mr. Smith was the first Roman Catholic to secure a presidential nomination.  That was back in 1928.  Old Al got waxed by Herbert Hoover and was lucky to lose. The Great Depression dropped on Hoover's head the next year.

Anyway, Kamala wants no part of this exposition because she is the queen of abortion promotion. That procedure is considered a grave sin by the church. Hard to yuk things up under those circumstances.

The strategy to put the Vice President in the top job is now obvious: TV ads will do her talking.  I have learned she is likely to do an interview with "60 Minutes," and that might be it for her in the press zone.

Donald Trump is also expected to talk to "60 Minutes."

Not since the immortal Warren Harding has a presidential candidate hid from the media. But it worked for Warren.

And it may work for Kamala.

See you later for the No Spin News.
