The Democrat Party just made it clear to Kamala Harris that the joy has faded and it’s time for anxiety.
For a candidate to receive that news from their own party is devastating to any campaign.
And Kamala Harris is fuming in anger after seeing the two pictures that showed her campaign is done.
Senate Democrats draw a red line between themselves and Kamala Harris
When it comes to Democrats down ballot this election year, it appears to be every man for himself.
At the same time that Kamala Harris is struggling to stay afloat in her bout with Donald Trump, there is a massive battle taking place for the majority in Congress.
Purchased media, via TV commercials, direct mail, and internet banner ads, are normally a good metric to determine what messages the campaigns discovered polled best for what they are trying to achieve – victory on Election Day.
And when it comes to those Democrat Senators praying that they will get re-elected in the Rust Belt – also the same states Kamala Harris needs to lock in if she is to become the next President – they are painting a clear picture about who they think their voters should be associated with.
Incumbent Democrat Senators Bob Casey Jr. (D-PA) and Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) are currently running television ads during commercials that feature former President Donald Trump.

ANOTHER ONE: Radical leftist Tammy Baldwin is also tying herself to President Trump in her latest ad — without mentioning Kamala at all.

At the very beginning of the election season, most experts assumed that Baldwin and Casey were strong favorites to win their re-elections without too much of a struggle.
And the very second that Kamala Harris took over as the Democrat nominee for President, she started with a strong advantage with leads in both Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
But it seems that the tables have more than just turned.
The RealClearPolitics polling average currently shows that Trump is leading against Kamala in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
And while public polls are one way to measure the direction of an election, campaign messaging through ads is another powerful metric.
Candidates unload truckloads of money to ensure that they are running with the most accurate data to dictate how they will steer their campaigns.
But nobody needs access to internal polling data to know that Democrat candidates down ballot see Kamala Harris’ campaign has become nothing more than a sinking ship.

Both Baldwin and Casey have refused to be seen in public with Kamala Harris the last time she had swung through their states.
During a recent rally in Erie, PA, Kamala Harris told her audience that Bob Casey “couldn’t be here tonight because he has to do what he has to do to get re-elected.”
And Baldwin was a no-show the last time Kamala Harris paid a campaign visit to Wisconsin.
Baldwin’s campaign even made the decision to leak her own internal polls to the media, which showed that Kamala Harris was losing in Wisconsin by three points – a last ditch effort to funnel millions of dollars into her campaign from donors.
According to Axios, “Sen. Tammy Baldwin’s (D-Wis.) lead in both public and internal polls has deteriorated, and Republicans are flooding the state with cash to pull off the upset.”
“Baldwin leads by just two points in internal Democratic polling…,” continued the report. “That is much closer than what public polling has shown for months.”
When it comes to Democrat strategy, the Midwest is intended to be their political firewall.
Democrats have been able to carry Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin in every single election for President dating back to 1992, minus Donald Trump’s 2016 underdog victory.
It has become clear that the Democrats are trying to distance themselves as much as they possibly can from Kamala Harris
And based on that alone, it goes to show where Kamala Harris’ campaign sits leading up to Election Day.
