David Axelrod:认为民主党全国代表大会组织出色,卡马拉·哈里斯的演讲成功,在信息传递上取得了微妙的平衡,既关注左翼议题和身份认同问题,又兼顾了主流选民的诉求,成功塑造了其强势形象,使竞选形势逆转。他还强调了大会节目安排的成功之处,避免了其他名人喧宾夺主,突出了卡马拉·哈里斯。同时,他还高度评价了Stephanie Cutter在大会筹备工作中的出色表现,认为其克服了诸多挑战。最后,他还指出,卡马拉·哈里斯应该继续保持积极乐观的形象,而不是陷入与特朗普的负面对抗,并认为其积极形象有助于赢得大选,并能抵消负面宣传。 Mike Murphy:认为民主党全国代表大会在信息传递上取得了微妙的平衡,成功地塑造了卡马拉·哈里斯的形象,使其更贴近中间派选民,并将其定位为中间派候选人。他指出,卡马拉·哈里斯的演讲具有战略意义,成功地塑造了她的形象,使其更贴近中间派选民,并使得这场竞选从民主党惨败变成了势均力敌的竞争。他还分析了特朗普阵营内部的矛盾,认为这将对其竞选造成不利影响,并预测共和党可能会攻击卡马拉·哈里斯的左翼立场以及其过往的政治记录。但他同时认为,卡马拉·哈里斯作为变革候选人的形象难以撼动。最后,他还指出,选民对民主党的普遍不满情绪是特朗普支持率能够维持的原因之一,卡马拉·哈里斯需要控制其左翼支持者的言论,以避免对其竞选造成负面影响。 John Heilemann:认为卡马拉·哈里斯的演讲与特朗普形成了鲜明对比,前者积极乐观,后者充满负面情绪,特朗普持续的负面言论不利于其竞选,而卡马拉·哈里斯的积极乐观态度则更能赢得选民的支持。他还指出,共和党对卡马拉·哈里斯的攻击缺乏说服力,因为特朗普本人的经济政策也存在问题,并且卡马拉·哈里斯的检察官背景为其提供了某种程度的保护,使其免受左翼立场的攻击。他还分析了罗伯特·肯尼迪退选对大选的影响,认为其退选对卡马拉·哈里斯的竞选有利。最后,他还强调了电视广告战对大选结果的影响,以及卡马拉·哈里斯需要保持目前的势头才能赢得大选。
