The thing that people have to realize about political campaigns is that they are fluid all the way up to the moment the votes are cast. You can have someone replaced at quite literally the last minute.
I have seen it happen before plenty of times in local elections. This begs the all-important question for our nation…
Will Joe Biden make it to the finish line?
That seems to be the burning question for the Democrat Party as the primary race starts to heat up.
If Biden falters for some reason, there is now a general consensus of who will take up the run for the White House in 2024.
Lurking
We are, of course, talking about California Governor Gavin Newsom.
Biden has had a shocking lack of support in the early days of this administration from seated Democrats.
That would be except for Newsom, who has been hitting red states campaigning for Biden.
That purpose, however, seems to be twofold.
Newsom may be campaigning for Biden, but he is also working on raising his own profile to step in if need be, at least that is what most people believe.
Even if he is not needed in 2024, he will clearly be the frontrunner for the 2028 race.
Rob Stutzman, a California Republican consultant, stated, “He’s putting in time and effort that no one else outside the White House appears to be.
“He’s acting like the candidate-in-waiting. Someday it may pay off for him.”
I cannot help but laugh that the best the Democrat Party has to offer is a governor that recently fought off a recall election.
Here is a little something to chew on, however.
There have been several mock polls that interjected Newsom into the race, and he is ahead of both Trump and DeSantis in a mock election for the 2024 presidency.
