Kamala Harris isn't up for election this year, but she's popular for endorsements

[RandySF]

When it comes to Democratic endorsements, U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris appears to be the hottest “get” in next month’s primary.

Harris’s face is showing up on 26 Democratic candidates’ mailers and TV ads, including those for Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom and Alameda County District Attorney Nancy O’Malley.

And with good reason. Polls show Harris is viewed favorably by 73 percent of Democrats and 63 percent of independents — making her more popular than even longtime U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein and Gov. Jerry Brown.

1. Watching her closely for 2020

3. And to think I shared a living room with her one evening at a fundraiser.

AND shoved aside by Kamala as she rushed the stage to shake Sen. Obama's hand at an event for Barbara Boxer

6. you lucky dog

She is a person with such an incredibly sharp mind and I believe a great sense of fair play

7. I'll be honest

I wasn't thrilled with her tenure as San Francisco DA but she was an excellent state attorney general.

8. I first heard of her when she was the state AG and....

she told the voting machine companies to give the state their code and they refused.
As my fuzzy brain remembers she then told them to get their machines out of California.
Can't remember how it ended, but I became an admirer right then.

2. She is my pick for 2020 POTUS

4. She is my choice for 2020

Maybe Kennedy III as V.P.

That would be an amazing pair. It could usher in 16 years of Democratic control of the White House.

IMHO

5. A former DUer or two really hated her...

... emphasis on the word "former".

9. Not very charismatic...

Sounds like she is reading in those ads

10. My mother-in-law was a lifelong Republican and she said she would vote for Harris

if she ran for President. She also told me that she is now an Independent and will vote for all Democrats this fall- I was shocked.
