Well, insiders are starting to panic about a repeat in 2024, as signs point to Trump barreling through the blue wall once again.

The latest polling shows Kamala Harris could be in big trouble.

So, you can understand why they're panicking.

Democratic insiders are worrying that Vice President Kamala Harris 's grip on the so-called "blue wall" may be slipping, and with it, the election.

Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden got to the White House by winning Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, but three people with knowledge of the Harris campaign's strategy have told NBC News that recent discussions have focused on the possibility that Michigan or Wisconsin may end up in former President Donald Trump's win column.

If Harris doesn't win both Wisconsin and Michigan, she has to pick up one or two other swing states to claim the presidency even if she wins Pennsylvania.

A Harris official told NBC that Michigan is the major worry within the campaign – and Harris has made several trips to the state in recent days.

Team Harris has a "Plan B" in case the blue wall crumbles. But, honestly, their backup plan doesn't sound all that strong, either. The Independent piece goes on:

Some weeks ago, advisers to the vice president said that an alternative route to victory could be to win Nevada and North Carolina if Trump secures Pennsylvania.

Four people with knowledge of the inner workings of the campaign told NBC that North Carolina is still a target for the campaign, but that they're much less sure of a win in the Tar Heel state.

"Of all of the seven [states], that one seems to be a little bit slipping away," an official said.

The sources said Hurricane Helene and the widespread destruction and disinformation about the federal response could help Trump in the state.

It's an interesting theory considering it comes on the heels of a new report that reveals Dems are worried sick that Kamala has spent way too much time trying to appeal to anti-Trump Republicans and totally ignored the struggling working class. Now, they're desperately trying to get her to change her closing message from the tired old Trump-bashing to actually focusing on struggling working-class Americans. A little too late for that, don't you think?
