Yessss. At this point we can all agree that there will be no perfect candidate. So can we settle on the candidate that is simply not what we have right now. My resolve is...of a pig runs against the incumbent, I'm voting for the pig.

Unfortunately we won’t have an incumbent in 2028. Best Dems can hope for in that department is Vance - or someone else indelibly stained as a Trumpist.

3 years out, we can look for somebody that maybe is less bad? I am delighted that Newsom is doing something good this weekend! But that doesn't mean I like him better than Pritzer or Walz. (Or Warren, or AOC, and I don't think the field is closed yet.)

We all don't like Newsom. If I try managing one of the largest economies in the world, I figure lots of people won't like me either. I don't think the play is to wait until election season to gather. Just like Cheeto never went away post 2020, it's the same game Dems have to come with.

That would be a better choice.
