“The first Democratic debates reinforced an instinct I first had months ago. Kamala Harris had the best debate of the 20 people on stage. She had the best one-liner. She had the most commanding presence. She felt the most energized and best prepared.

For the first time, it looks like the finalists in the struggle for the Democratic nomination for president may be two senators—one from each coast. If this is the case, the choice may come down to Warren’s icy intelligence versus Harris’s passionate crowd pleasing. I would bet on Harris winning that showdown.
