NY Times signals Kamala that her White House ambitions are hopeless
American Thinker ^ | 6 Feb, 2023 | Thomas Lifson

In the old days of the USSR, Kremlinologists used to figure out who was in and who was out in the power struggles at the top by looking at the reviewing stand for the May Day military parades. Proximity to the leader was the criterion. With today’s Democrats, an equally shadowy gaggle of power-hungry operatives controlled by hidden hands, we must rely on signals coming from a few semi-official media organs, but preeminently the New York Times.

That’s why a major article in the big circulation Sunday edition of the Times on Kamala Harris is so interesting.

After an introduction with some sympathy for the vice president, feigning balance, came this slap in the face from “dozens” of anonymous party sources “including some who helped put her on the party’s 2020 ticket”:

But the painful reality for Ms. Harris is that in private conversations over the last few months, dozens of Democrats in the White House, on Capitol Hill and around the nation — including some who helped put her on the party’s 2020 ticket — said she had not risen to the challenge of proving herself as a future leader of the party, much less the country. Even some Democrats whom her own advisers referred reporters to for supportive quotes confided privately that they had lost hope in her.

It gets worse.

Through much of the fall, a quiet panic set in among key Democrats about what would happen if President Biden opted not to run for a second term. Most Democrats interviewed, who insisted on anonymity to avoid alienating the White House, said flatly that they did not think Ms. Harris could win the presidency in 2024. Some said the party’s biggest challenge would be finding a way to sideline her without inflaming key Democratic constituencies y.

Pfffttt... no one thought brain-dead-Biden could "win."

There is no winning anymore. It's who counts the "votes."

That’s my guess. Of course Newsome is a turd, but he’s going to bring that “California Dreamin’” to the whole country.

CNN is already doing their puff pieces on him.

He’s the one they have selected.

The New York Times doesn’t ‘get it’. Democrats are chosen based on: sexual kink, skin pigmentation, gender, who their grandfather was, and commie ideology. The only way Karmal could be replaced would be with someone who checks more boxes than she does... A gay black trans commie might do it...

The NYT is racist and misogynistic. Where are the protesters?
