Let's Just Say I Had a Hunch (as I this mentioned before...) Former Biden HHS secretary Becerra launches bid for California governor.

@Thinkerbell

Yes, I do.

(the more unfavorable Trump's ratings are, the more likely she will get the nomination.)

@Thinkerbell
Joe Biden hadn't done so well in primaries prior to 2020, either.

@beckyromero

So it's yet another case of the Democrats having no one better to offer...? 🙄

@Thinkerbell
You should know that I've repeatedly said that I feel the Democrats have had a weak bench since the Obama years caused a lost of about 1,000 elective seats in Congress and state houses.

@beckyromero

Yeah, but do they have to go to the bottom of their weak bench? 🙄

@Thinkerbell
Then, who do YOU suggest they should run?

@beckyromero

Newsom or Josh Shapiro are each about 50 points above Kamala in IQ, and both of them can think on their feet incomparably better than she can. Admittedly, Josh might have some trouble with the Hamas wing of the party staying home on election day, or going kook third-party, but if Trump does as badly as you and MarkPaul hope, he should have no trouble winning.

@Thinkerbell

I like Shapiro and think he'd make a good president.

But Newsom? 🤣 Two words: "French Laundry."

@beckyromero

Yeah, but no one will remember the French Laundry if Trump does as badly as you and MarkPaul hope. I don't recall Biden's earlier speech plagiarism being an issue in 2020.

@Thinkerbell

If it were Vance and Newsom it would be "Cats and Dogs" vs. "French Laundry."

Besides, Newsom couldn't even defeat DeSantis in a debate.

@beckyromero

If that's all Vance and Newsom could come up with, it would be a reprise of Kamala's "I was raised in a middle-class family" answer to every question put to her.

They're both much smarter than that.

@Thinkerbell

If Newsom was so smart, why did he marry Kimberly Guilfoyle?

@beckyromero

Guilfoyle was a flaming San Francisco liberal at the time, who helped Newsom become mayor.
