Two weeks ago, Tim Walz had never given a speech using an autocue. But you wouldn’t know it listening to him addressing the Democratic convention.
A former high school teacher and football coach he basically gave a pep talk to his party, telling them they will need to put in the work to get him and Kamala Harris elected to the White House.
This brand new team of Walz and Harris have brought a fresh energy that has reinvigorated Democrats.
But senior party strategists are worried it is all going too well.
That Democrats now believe they are winning when in fact the polls suggest the race is tied and that sooner or later Donald Trump will work out how to define and attack Harris. Then the race will get much tougher.
This ends our live coverage for now, but we'll be back in Chicago for more from the Democratic convention when Kamala Harris speaks to her supporters.
