I’m OK with Harris. Not thrilled, but OK.

It would have been nice to get Warren. Sanders has the same age issue (though is still mentally there in interviews) as Biden, and that window has closed. So many people at the federal level have clung to their positions for so long, it feels like as a country, we wouldn’t be familiar with people in the primes of their life actually running the show.

At 45, I shouldn’t still be waiting for my generation to have any level of power. AARP is coming for me in 10 years.

    Newsom comes with a raft cruise liner of other problems. He’s like choosing a red-meat wishlist for the right.

    I’d be surprised if Kelly isn’t on the short list. I like Shapiro, but it feels like when Dems pick a governor with less than two years in that role, things go poorly.

    But agreed that swing-state White guy is sadly the only option in this environment.
