As I predicted a couple of weeks ago Kamala Harris is now gone [1].
This is a developing story but I have no doubts about its authenticity.
It’s kind of ironic though, that the only Democrat who hasn’t gone too far left for even the Democrat Party rank-and-file, much less the independent voter, is Joe Biden.
Harris dropping out of the race is certain if nothing else, to cause serious consternation on the part of the Democrats who are trying desperately to unseat Donald Trump.
Matt Margolis looks at the situation and says [2],
With Kamala Harris’s departure from the 2020 presidential race on Tuesday, the Democrats now will have a huge diversity problem on their hands as the only candidates left in the race who have qualified for the December 19th debate in Los Angeles are white.
Yeah well, so much for the Democrats and their “diversity”.
Matt in his peace also points out that’s Harris was blaming racism for her not gaining any traction in the Democrat primary. As I pointed out at the time, it’s amusing and useful to have a Democrat pointing out that there is racism in the Democrat Party… appoint which both Matt and I have been arguing for years. After all, this is a Democrat Party primary. Who would she be labeling as racist in that subset?
Democrats.
In truth I’m a little disappointed that she dropped out when she did. Word I got was that she just asked California governor Gavin Newsom to come out (pardon the pun) and campaign with her. Since the governor already signed a bill outline California is traveling to Iowa, it would have been interesting to see how he got around his own law.
