SFist claims that Newsom and Harris are “respected.”

Not sure by who. But the cookie cutter mold seems to be in place that either of these two consummate mediocrities will be the new Jerry Brown, the new DiFi or the new Barbara Boxer.

Hopefully, they will become neither senator nor governor. But one shudders to think what mediocrity will assume these august positions, even if these two are shot down and sent back to (highly profitable) private life.
