CA-SEN: Adam Schiff Won't Announce Senate Bid Today

[RandySF]

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) told Politico not to expect a U.S. Senate campaign announcement from him today, along with a veiled shot at Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA) who did make an announcement.

Said Schiff: “You don’t announce a campaign in the middle of a natural disaster.”

Meanwhile, Porter’s pollster David Binder put out a survey showing Porter leading Schiff, 37% to 26%, in a hypothetical top-two November election.

1. As always a class act

[Buckeyeblue]

2. I would probably vote for Porter

She is smart, quick, witty and fearless.

3. Damn. Like them both. A lot.

[imaginary girl]

4. I agree

I hate that this means one of them will be out.

11. I suspect either would be on bidens cabinet in short order......

There is no shortage of cabinet turnovers after a major election.......

5. Adam is my Congress Critter.

I have always been proud to vote for him and he would be a great Senator. That said, I love Katie, too. I would imagine, whoever prevailed in the primary would support the other.

6. I don't want to see this Primary fight.

I'd rather see Schiff and Porter in the Senate than DiFi and Padilla.

7. As a former California Voter..

I like Rep Adam Schiff for the job.

Best of Good Luck for California's Flooding Disasters.

8. There are 40 California Democrats in the House.

And I'm guessing at least 35 of them want to be the next senator.

9. It sounds like DiFi is getting primaried

Or maybe they're just encouraging her not to run. My Lord she's almost 90 years old.

Both Katie Porter and Adam Schiff are better candidates than the Repukes would ever some up with.

10. Good grief. She isn't running.

There is no need to exhibit this level of disrespect for such an outstanding and distinguished Democratic Senator.

She has served by home state very well.

12. I Still Can't Get Over Porter Endorsing Nina Turner Over an Elected Dem -Shontel Brown

That's a hard no for me. This early announcement stunt speaks to a sense of entitlement that I have seen from Porter before.

[JohnSJ]

14. I feel the same way

[JohnSJ]

13. I will vote for Adam Schiff over someone who enthusiastically endorsed Nina Turner. I also

wouldn't be surprised if our Governor decides to run if Senator Feinstein retires, which I expect her to.

Senator Feinstein has been a great Senator

[ananda]

15. Oh dear. This is awful.

Porter v. Schiff

They are both so good.

I wish they could run in separate races.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

16. Rep. Adam Schiff would make a great Senator
