I'm going to let you in on a little political secret, maybe the worst kept secret in national politics.
Former Vice President Kamala Harris is considering a comeback
and thinking about running for president in 2028. I'm thinking about it.
She went on a book tour through important Democratic primary states.
She's chatting with Zora Mamdani, and she's dialing up pro-Palestinian activists to gauge their level of interest.
Most importantly, though, she's leading the polls,
beating out big names like California's Gavin Newsom and New York's AOC.
But I covered Harris' first two presidential runs in 2019 and also in 2024. So I know
that the idea of Harris the candidate is sometimes better than the reality.
I have a question.
Does anybody actually want the Kamala Harris comeback to happen?
I called up Democratic insiders to get their take.
And I got the voicemail.
The person you're trying to reach is not available.
Let's try somebody else.
Your call has been forwarded to voicemail.
The tone please record your message oh you know a lot of journalism is just voicemails
oh i'm getting a call back hey how are you this alex i thought
you were my uber driver trying to get to the airport i also talked to donors everything
that happened has left bad taste and we need a fresh start and of course the voters absolutely i think kamala
