And Kamala Harris VP has Jen O'Malley Dillon on board as well. High up in Biden campaign, managed Biden 2020 campaign.
So you have two winning campaign managers who assembled difficult electoral maps into victory.
There's no substitute for experience at that level. If something goes awry, you have people who have been there, are familiar with the current operation and situation, and you can make adjustments.

(24,076 posts)I dont recall hearing much from Plouffe, especially compared to the other David from the Obama campaign, David , who was everywhere insisting Biden step down.
Plouffe is an astute campaign strategist and should be a valuable asset to the Harris campaign.

I see this a a big plus....
