Villaraigosa: Kamala Harris Will Be ‘Knocking on Doors in Iowa’
Washington FreeBeacon ^ | 8/20/2017 | David Rutz

Posted on 08/20/2017 8:06:21 AM PDT by simpson96

Former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa (D.) said California Sen. Kamala Harris (D.) will be "knocking on doors in Iowa," indicating Saturday he expects she will run for president.

Villaraigosa, who is running for Governor of California in 2018, was asked by MSNBC host Hugh Hewitt about Harris, a newly elected senator considered a rising star in the Democratic Party. Hewitt predicted she would be the nominee for the Democrats in 2020.

"Has she got a stake in this governor's race?" Hewitt asked.

"Well, not yet," Villaraigosa said. "I hope she will support my candidacy, but as you say, she is a great candidate. She's going to be knocking on doors in Iowa, I expect. But in any case, I'm focused on this race, not the presidential race."

Iowa refers to the Iowa caucuses, the first major nominating event in presidential election cycles. Barack Obama scored a shocking victory in Iowa in 2008 en route to his successful run for the Democratic nomination and eventually the presidency.

Harris met last month with some of Hillary Clinton's largest donors in the Hamptons, and one fundraiser said anonymously she is planning to run.

"She's running for president. Take it to the bank," one fundraiser said in July. "She's absolutely going to run."

One of the most dangerous democrats. They smell blood in the water or they would save her for 2024 and roll out Biden or warren. Harris was strongly pro-sanctuary when citizens in her city (SF) were being killed by illegals the city let out of jail without notifying ICE. She prosecuted the guy who filmed PP admitting to selling body parts and not the PP managers who admitted to it on tape. She is aggressively radical liberal and will make it hell for conservatives of she is eager elected to the WH. Think Obama with much more anger.

Sen. Kamala Harris (D).

The black Hillary Clinton.

The Female Barack Obama.

A rude, crude, ultra-leftist bitch on wheels.

Being Willie Brown’s mistress will launch a political career in Calipornea.

How well will that play in the heartland?

One of the more suspicious explanations in politics is the resignation “in order to spend more time with family”. Right behind that is the person who gets married just prior to embarking on a political career, or talking a political career in a state that does not care about family to a national level. Harris first married at age 49 in 2014. Just sayin’.

The first few hearing in the Senate that she got press for were some remarkably unintelligent examples of badgering an witness, not particularly sharp interrogation. She has the same sort of superficial characteristics that would make a campaign consultant salivate, but so far I see no reason to think it goes beyond that. And we already tried that with Obama, and the county has not forgotten its disappointment.

So let her run. She's a black woman, dare I say more radical than obozo or Hillary with a nasty personality. Don't think she has a chance.

How are they going to hide her leftist history like they did Obama’s? As a California politician, her leftist history is there for all to see. I have already seen one article that referred to her as a centrist. The whitewashing begins.

All that matters is if Peggy Noonan, Charles Krauthammer, Shemp Smith, Lindsey Graham, and Marco Rubio approve of her. If they do she's in.

FWIW, although we have already ignored the Constitution regarding eligibility, both Harris and Villaraigosa being from the same state cannot be on the ticket together. Then again she is not a natural born citizen so why should I quibble about another old white men’s rule?
