> Newsom and Shapiro will be at the top of the list for sure.
Neither has genuine appeal. Shapiro is a really, really poor speaker and has few credentials except as a moderate. Newsom is the definition of coastal elite. Both have spoken, neither have been heard.
Oops, I had mixed up Shapiro with Gretchen Whitmer (another of these "rising stars"). Shapiro just does white Obama.

2032, nice try though. Besides, we're not going to need to vote anymore otherwise, remember? The 2028 Democratic Primary would be a pro-forma affair between Barron vs. Mayor McCheese.
After this year, many democrats are as well - which is why Harris had such a hard time finding a VP and took Walz who was like the last kid you pick on your dodgeball team.
The presidential race in 2028 for the Democrats is going to have one of the deepest benches for talent I've seen in a long time. Newsom and Shapiro will be at the top of the list for sure.
But I agree, Newsom has been making some decisions lately that seem to indicate he's trying to clean up his image and look more "moderate" for the coming election cycles.
