Marianne Williamson (who did get more votes than Kamala) is a new-age mystical joke, and Phillips reminds me of Pete McCloskey’s quixotic run against Nixon in ’72.
It’s still early, but (not a prediction) the only move I see for the Dems would be to convince Kamala to run for Senate in California on the premise that “they need me” which would clear the decks for a ginned-up groundswell “Draft Newsom” campaign.
[I know Glasser is only spitballing, but there was zero chance of this happening before October 7. If odds can drop below zero, that’s where they are now. Harris is the darling of the hard-Left identitarian progressives fomenting a political civil war in the Democrat Party over US support for Israel. Replacing her on the ticket with a greasy elitist white dude was already a non-starter, but a greasy elitist white dude who supports Israel, as Newsom claims to do? Fuhgeddaboudit. — Ed]
