Kamala Is the Presidential Favorite

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.

Harris isn’t going to be their nominee in 2028, she had her shot and lost.

The last time the Democrats nominated a candidate that had already lost a Presidential Election was Adlai Stevenson in 1956.

They’re pretty ruthless at ditching their losers, here’s a list:

Humphrey
McGovern
Carter
Mondale
Dukakis
Gore
Kerry
Hillary Clinton

You may be right. :)

My thinking, it’s going to be Hakeem Jeffries; seeing all the grandstanding he does to keep in the public’s mind.

Harris and Newsom are the best that Democrats can put forward for President? Wow, I can't wait for the Presidential primaries. Two absolutely California “do nothings.”

[Bullish]

Wow, what a dismally weak field. Not surprising since they’re completely out of any ideas except for all the bad ones.
America’s sick and tired of these stupid communists.

That might be a true game changer! /sarc

Pretty much! ‘What Can Be, Unburdened By What Has Been’.
So cryptic…. Not!

Who is pulling his strings?

I couldn’t handle listening to the nasal voice, and the insane cackle, for four years.

[GingisK]

If she were to run against Rubio or Vance, she’d be slaughtered.

I wish that could be uttered with some confidence. American voters have become frightfully stupid.

[Vaduz]

Early trannies it took time to master.

[jonrick46]

Who is pulling Jeffries strings? My guess Schumer.

"Who is foam boy?"

Marco Rubio Used to Throw Up Drunk on People, Go to Foam Parties

Now, here is a problem. During his overly-long press confab on Friday where he got entirely too comfortable auditioning for President instead of JDV, someone asked him "his DJ name". And he paused a beat too long and said, "You can't handle my DJ name."

It's bad enough Rubio > JDV but damnit Marco shut your pie hole.
