Like so many Democrats in the U.S., I’ve been refreshing every news site waiting for an end to the will he or won’t he prognosticating. That end hit earlier today when President Biden withdrew from the race and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris. I’m engaged but not, you know, knowledgeable. So take that as a disclaimer. Still, here are some of the things I’m thinking now:

  1. Dobbs makes a difference. When Secretary Clinton ran, when now Vice President Harris ran in the last primary session, women could legally depend on support for reproductive choice, even if tenuously.
  2. She can access the money. Let’s not pretend that doesn’t matter.
  3. “She can prosecute the case against Trump.” It is a great line.
  4. Congressman Clyburn.
  5. Congressman Adam Schiff and Congressman Raskin have both endorsed Vice President Harris. They are both close to the most incisive tactical politician living today.
