Report: Kamala Harris ‘Lays Groundwork’ for 2028 Campaign
Former Vice President Kamala Harris is laying the groundwork for a third presidential campaign, speaking with major donors, hiring staff, and traveling to battleground states, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
The former vice president has told associates she remains undecided on another White House run, but she has taken steps that could precede a 2028 bid, the Journal reported, citing multiple people familiar with the conversations.
Harris has publicly tied her plans to the November midterms, telling a NAACP event in Michigan last month that the next cycle depends on this one.
“I have not decided if I’m going to run again,” Harris said, drawing a lengthy standing ovation. “I do sincerely believe ‘28 won’t matter if we don’t get through ‘26.”
But, then we get this from Politico
‘She totally blew it’: How Kamala Harris wasted a year to make her case
Kamala Harris has kept the door open to running for president again in 2028. What she failed to do over the past year, even one-time supporters and allies of the former vice president say, is give voters a reason to reconsider her if she does.
For Harris, according to interviews with nearly 20 Democratic Party donors and strategists in California and across the country, it was a missed opportunity to redefine herself — and ultimately a wasted year.
“She totally blew it,” said Doug Herman, who was a lead mail strategist for Barack Obama’s 2008 and 2012 campaigns. “She hasn’t gotten into the mix.”
Harris has offered voters almost nothing in the way of specifics about how she would remake a Democratic Party hungry for change after another term of Donald Trump. She hasn’t spoken to how she would expand her own appeal to the voters who rejected her and she remains as reticent of media as ever, continuing to favor appearances before friendly audiences and at times drawing fire for shutting out news organizations altogether. She has entirely sidestepped the ideological civil war consuming the Democrats and has acted more like a party elder at a time when voters and donors are demanding a break with the past.
When a leading Democrat run political news outlet like Politico runs this that is pretty darned bad, especially when it is big wigs, both money and politically, in the Democrat party poo pooing her chances. Knowing they do not want to give her money and help. Because what does Kamala stand for? She blew two previous primaries, and dropped out of the 2020 race when it had barely started. Is there anyone clamoring for her to run? I think most want her to go away. Including the Democrat big wigs.
Who would be the front runner, though?
Good to see Talarico has recovered from his recent of sexually transmitted diarrhea.
The rumor I heard was it was Monkey pox. Thus the need to stay out of public and away from cameras until the face scares healed. Politicians can easily go into public with diarrhea. Joe Biden did it all the time.
Diaper Donny poops in public all the time!
Mr Talarico was verified home with the flu. Paxton is now dealing with a new scandal.
Pax is nearly as corrupt as Diaper Don!!
The Wall Street Journal reported on “a previously unreported New Year’s Eve 2024 celebration where Paxton partied in Dubai with two fugitives from U.S. justice and a woman who wasn’t his wife.”
The fugitives have contributed over $200,000 to the Paxton campaign.
Standard corruption for a Repubicun!!
If true, this would be the first time since Bill Clinton that the democratic party didn’t nominate someone who was dumber than the previous pick. (Hint: She was the previous pick)
It is possible she will not announce she is running until 106 days before the election so she can beat her last record.
Donny can’t win against a man. He can only beat women!
And you’re still a retard.
I essentially make about 6,000-8,000 every month on the web. It’s sufficient to serenely supplant my old employments pay, particularly considering I just work around 10-13 hours every week from home. I was stunned how simple it was after I attempted it duplicate underneath web….… https://tinyurl.com/pmvvzsea
