Politico's Report on the Candidate Many Dems Want Back in 2028 Is GREAT News (for the Republicans)

Doug P. | 5:20 PM on December 18, 2024

We're barely past the 2024 election and everybody could use a break from presidential election politics for a while, but sometimes heading into the week of Christmas with some really positive news for the future can be a good thing. Politico delivered with this one:

Democrats don't blame Harris. In fact, many want her back in 2028. https://t.co/niwavRc1wb

Could there possibly be any more optimistic news with which to close out the year of 2024?

Yes, please run her again. lol

Oh, please God, let it be true. I cannot think of a more entertaining evening than a debate in which Vance faced off against Harris and two moderators. https://t.co/U1SfCatRAk

This is exciting news... for the Republicans:

“I would be on board 100 percent with whatever she decides to do. I think she is a phenomenal person. I think she was a phenomenal candidate,” said Yvette Lewis, a member of the Democratic National Committee’s executive panel. “We were able to turn things around so quickly, and that’s a testament to her.”
At a confab of DNC members last week, no party officials outright dismissed the idea of another Harris campaign, and some said they were willing to back her if she ran again.
Shasti Conrad, chair of the Washington Democratic Party who was also at the event, said, “I certainly was so proud to support her and would love to do it again.
”But, she added, the 2028 presidential primary will be “an open process,” meaning that Harris would face competition if she ran again.
