Maybe she didn't want to highlight some of the issues some on our side have had about her time as DA, but it might have been a sign that there was a potential disconnect between the campaign and Democratic enthusiasm.
I expected many of the results in California that we're seeing, but I am surprised by some of the margins. Sometimes we get in this area where we know the Democrat's going to win the election no matter what, so it doesn't matter too much what we think or how we vote. My ballot practically fills out itself most of the time where I live in the Bay Area.
And sometimes, despite that, people reach a point where they are going to send a message. This election feels like one of those instances.
