The Effect of Recent Immigration on the US Economy, New Swing State Polls from CNN, and Can Harris Win with a “Vibes” Strategy?

RealClearPolitics Podcast

Andrew, Tom, and Carl discuss new swing state polls from CNN and whether Harris can win with a “vibes” strategy that avoids making specific policy proposals. They also talk about the effect of recent immigration on the US economy, and how immigration features in the presidential race. Plus, they chat about Tim Walz’ brother who has commented on the Democratic vice-presidential nominee’s fitness for office. Is the media giving the Walz family fair coverage compared to other candidates’ family stories? Next, Tom talks to RCP White House correspondent Phil Wegmann about the critical Senate race in Pennsylvania. And finishing up, Andrew talks to former state department official Peter Berkowitz about the Biden/Harris administration’s approach to peace talks in the Middle East in the wake of this weekend’s murder by Hamas of six hostages, including the 23-year-old American civilian, Hersh Goldberg-Polin.
