I like Harris a lot and a lot of the other young progressive. But the course is set for 2020 I think and that means Warren will be our nominee.

Just as Obama benefited from the backlash of Bush, so will the 2020 presidential nominee benefit from the backlash of Trump. So this is a chance for the hard left to make a quantum leap they have been wanting to make for 40 years since McGovern.

I think any Democrat we put up in 2020 is likely to win, so let's take a big bite of the apple. We thought we were doing that with Obama.

Besides that, we have to deal with reality and the reality is Warren is so far out in the lead it would be fool hardy for anybody to challenge her on the left and there's nothing going on with the middle in the Democratic Party.
