The night Kamala Harris met Sharon Stone’s ex husband Phil Bronstein in a back-room San Francisco bar - and what happened after that [2004]

...‘Practically hidden in the choking pall of tobacco and celebrity, a young woman was perched on a bar stool watching the game, waiting, calculating,’ Bronstein recalled, breathlessly.

‘She was almost sedated, nursing a glass of wine and smoking cigarettes.

‘The quiet observer was Kamala Harris, the woman whom many now think is an odds-on favorite to be President of the United States,’ he gushed in the 2018 article – a time when she was briefly leading in the polls for the Democrat nomination.

‘But on this night, she was a political rookie, barely a year into her first term as San Francisco district attorney: focused, reserved, undistracted, emotions in check. And mysterious.’

‘As the game went on, I watched Kamala quietly observing and analyzing, trying to decide if she wanted to challenge the winner.

‘Finally, I imagine, she made her decision. Not the right time, not the right players. She left the room.’

Bronstein’s dramatic depiction left out one key detail – just why he, one of the most powerful figures in the City by the Bay was so keenly studying the prosecutor rather than mixing it with Penn or Springsteen.

Uhhh... maybe because he was the executive editor of the San Francisco Chronicle and she was "news?"

The only glass ceiling Kamala Harris ever broke was the mirror over Willie Brown’s bed.

Daily Mail does so much reporting the American media won’t.

Film Noir:

“It was a smokey bar room, the man and woman eyed each-other through the haze.

He was a tall plaything for movie starlets, and she had a body that was built for globalism. Her attitude was unburdened by what had been, which screamed to him: ‘the borders are wide open.”

He approached her through the din of a Tim Rattey sack....

So, the barfly read her mark correctly.

So she hasn't changed, other than to substitute Ganji for tobacco.

He would advise Biden, if he picked her as his VP, to get a "food taster".

Smoking was prohibited in bars in San Francisco starting in 1998.

I don’t think people were still smoking in Tosca in 2004.

A singer in a smoky room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on, and on, and on

Is that a Komodo dragon in your pants or are you just happy to see me?

“Remember, Sharon Stone tried to have him killed.”

I guess that explained the Komodo dragon incident.

I’ve been to that bar, and the then owner Jeannette Etheredge was a smoker who herself smoked cigarettes inside. That was true up until the point when she sold the place like 10 years ago.

Kamala is incapable of making a decision. Choosing what policy route to take.

If she wins we will be funding donor study and commission boards before the establishment convinces her what to say.

Kamala is incapable of making a decision.

One thing she doesn't have to think about, Red wine and a joint makes her feel good and happy.
