Kamala Harris continues spending money she does not have to hold onto a race which she and her coterie considered would be a slam dunk.
Like many optimistic conservatives, I believe that 2016 will mirror the Democratic waves of 2008. Democrats are now tired of their party, which has veered so far to the left, attacking Main Street and boosting Wall Street and K Street at the expense of everyone else. Middle income families are struggling to get by, and are buying less than they used to.
The older black woman who chided Obama in 2012 is looking more prominent and prevalent than every before: "Are we going to have to go back to beans and wieners again? I am so tired of having to defend you. I am so tired" this woman lamented during the second debate of 2012.
The American People are tired, and they want something different. The hope and change which they had voted for in 2008 turned out to be disappointed, fantasy, and fraud all wrapped up in one.
Korrupt Kammy is inheriting this disillusioned electorate. If some reports are accurate, even in California, where gun-rack, Reagan Democrats still exist, just with darker skin, Kammy is facing the uphill battle which she had thought would never stifle her.
In the last days of the the fourth quarter, the Harris campaign released two eblasts from two black celebrities. What? Her star power as the first black, female, biracial Attorney General was not enough to generate notoriety and respect?
No, it wasn't.
The first eblast this week came from US Senator Cory Booker (D-New Jersey).
Booker won a special election by nine points in two-to-one Democratic Garden State, the same year Governor Chris Christie was seeking reelection. With political savvy yet unethical selfishness, Christie appointed a special election to replaced the deceased Frank Lautenberg for October to diminish the voter turn-out one month later.
Booker was the favorite going in, and incumbent Christie, looking to make nice with all the Democratic power brokers in the state, did not campaign much for GOP challenger Steve Lonegan.
Booker is not a historic win necessarily, but at this time he is the only Democratic African-American US Senator in the upper chamber. The Republican Party can boast, from the end of the Civil War to the present day, all the firsts when it comes to minority figures elected to the US Senate.
Back to Kammy and Cory. . .
In the latest eblast, the US Senator wrote:
