ANALYSIS — Democrats love celebrities. But there’s no certainty star power will propel Vice President Kamala Harris to the presidency.
The party has trotted out actors, musical stars and athletes for years trying to fire up its base and attract swing voters. Perhaps right on cue, with less than two weeks until Election Day, Harris is running this familiar play.
The Democratic nominee already has netted the coveted endorsement of global music mega-star Taylor Swift — a Pennsylvania native — and 15-time Grammy winning rapper Eminem campaigned with former President Barack Obama earlier this week in Detroit, aiming to fire up Michigan Democrats in that key battleground state.
