Kamala was catching on until Tulsi killed her!

After barely surviving the Usurper-in-Chief, yes. It was a rhetorical, wise-azz question.
I have a slightly different take on all of this.
First, the number one goal for the Democrats is to have a Fully-Certified Progressive (TM) as the president. As dull and as abrasive as Kamala Harris can sound at times, remember abrasiveness is a favorable Dem trait. Yes, she’s black, or more specifically, not white nor East Asian. She has the “experience” of being a “tough on crime” attorney, but she was CA AG during the time that the law to let out all the convicts to “reduce prison population” was being formulated.
In short, she’s fully qualified and easy to promote ONCE there are no other candidates to fuss with.
And that brings us to the current “phase.” To be blunt, the only reason that Beto, Castro, and other low-percenters are in the race is to go for the VP. Harris will most probably pick a non-white male to be her running mate, and they fit the bill. Note that even if Harris is not the long-view candidate, and one of the three inept white-white old people get the nomination, then they would have to pick a non-white running mate, so the game is still afoot.
But it comes down to endurance, to be honest. I’m very sure the Deep Staters/Democrat Party were cringing at Hillary’s health during the 2016 campaign, making sure they had a back doctor on call at all times, and other things. They do not want a repeat of that with one of the three white-white septuagenarians hobbling across the country.
Nope, Harris is it. Not sure how it will be played, but I’m sure there will be a lot of collusion between the network “moderators” and Perez’s office. The one thing the Democrats absolutely can NOT have is for the candidate to be in limbo by the time the DNC convention occurs.
Ironically, had AOC been 35 by Inauguration day, she would have easily won the nomination, as her agenda has essentially been adopted and promoted throughout the Democrat Party. This is why I think Harris is going to take it.

I was surprised that the phrase: “shallow self-promoting b_tch” was left out of the “analysis”...
But, maybe, everyone KNOWS this already...
That’s about $50 worth of rocks and $75 in hammers. Depending on the market place.
She’s not eligible.
Good point.
I agree completely there. Who was the last Senator who was worth a damn as President? It sure wasn’t Obunghole.
In my lifetime, only Nixon or JFK really seemed up to snuff to me, and both of them had their obvious issues. Johnson, definitely not. Then you have to go way back.
I am no fan of Harry Truman due to his interactions with people like Sen. McCarthy coupled with his cover up of embarrassing Democrat collusion and acceptance of communists in the government. It was more important to him to cover it all up to protect the Democrat Party than it was to give national security precedence as it should have.
So I agree with you...Senators make lousy Presidents, and even more so in today’s political world.
Hahahaha...the rocks were probably mine! I’M RICH!
Comments BUMP!
She’s gotten to where she is by displaying a rather cavalier attitude about getting horizontal.
That don’t work in real elections.
About as black as my royal Irish arse.
“...despite a shot of adrenaline after confronting front-runner Joe Biden in the first debate, she has failed to catch fire with Democratic voters...”
Her beat-down of Biden wasn’t as extreme as Tulsi’s beat-down of her, and that made her look weaker. (Thank you, Tulsi.)
I thought the same thing.Obama didn’t help anyone but himself.
Ah, that is just too raw and tragic right now. Sad.
(Although I assume there was a double entendre...)
NONE of the Senators who trashed Kavanaugh during his nasty hearing have caught on. All are rejects!
Harris, Spartacus, Klobuchar, Gillibrand!
Goes to prove even Democrat voters didn’t appreciate the horrid treatment they laid on Judge Kavanaugh.
Exactly! So why is she not the frontrunner?
Obviously it’s because FredocRATS are racist, sexist, whoreaphobes (sp?).
Nobody doused her in Gasoline?
