A new Harvard/Harris poll finds that former Vice President Kamala Harris has opened up a significant lead in the race for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination. Ms. Harris is the choice of 50% of Democrats surveyed, while her next closest competitor, Gov. Gavin Newsom (D., Calif.), gets the nod from just 22% of the donkeys. Bringing up the rear is a cast of characters each polling in single digits. Oddly, this new presidential polling momentum for Ms. Harris arrives just as some Democrats wonder out loud if she really should be running for governor of California.

Name recognition is always important in the early stages. It’s not so important later on.
Democrats used to rely on media (Time, Newsweek) to anoint their candidates (Kennedy, Carter, Clinton, Obama). Those old magazines are basically extinct now. Harris and Buttigieg are high in the polls because there’s nobody to bring the new faces forward to the public — and no new faces either.

Pete Buttigieg.............
People are so unbelievably stupid and gullible.

The Dems go for name recognition and smooth talking candidates. Many probably don’t know who Newsom is. But he is a smooth talker so there is that. Toss up I say.
But ‘not burdened by what has been’?
God help us all if that stupid, knee pad slutbag ever gets ahold of the presidency.
And yes, I think Americans are stupid enough to put her there.

Early polls are not always predictive of final outcomes, but they do have major implications for candidates. Donors and voters use polls to gauge whether a candidate is viable, so the numbers matter for their ability to fundraise and garner media attention.
I honestly think Kamala’s advantage is that she has no record of actually running anything. Sure, she talks word salad, but there is no smoking gun that she is actually incompetent. [Well, there is obviously, but all Dem’s will just claim there is no factual basis for that assumption.]
Running again would give her more time to explore “What can be, unburdened by what has been”.
Most people who would draw 50% in a poll for President would have some sort of record of accomplishments. What has Harris ever demonstrated but incapacity? The pollsters should have asked respondents to name the top three accomplishments of their chosen candidate that show they are up to the job.
The more accurate term would be "jenny ass," but that may be too technical for the Left Side.

May 2014, ie, 2+ years before the election:
According to the Quinnipiac University poll, 27 percent would back Bush for the White House, earning him a sizable lead over the rest of the GOP field.
Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul came in second with 14 percent, beating out Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who came in third at 11 percent. No other candidates received more than 6 percent support.
The poll comes amid rising speculation that Bush, the governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007, might run for the GOP nomination in 2016.
The poll showed Hillary Clinton doing well in Florida, as well. She topped all potential GOP challengers in a head-to-head race. In a potential faceoff between her and Bush, she received 49 percent support compared to 41 percent support for the former governor.
The Quinnipiac University poll was conducted April 23-28 with 1,413 registered voters. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.6 percentage points.
Pete Buttigieg, of course.
Due to the significance of the passage of time...
That's because Dems are into S&M ...
Being “black” didn’t work. Maybe this time “Indian” Will work.
