Kamala Harris urges activists in Nevada to 'go in fighting'

I think the Democrats will have a broad range of choices. Of course, I am sure the Russians will be working overtime to try to interfere and keep Democrats and the few Republicans who have opposed Russian election interference from being viable. We have seen how these campaigns work with a myriad of one line twitter-style attacks that repeat a leftist sounding talking point full of buzz works like neoliberal or corporatist. Hopefully, Democrats and the American people are better prepared.

Henderson, Nevada (CNN)Kamala Harris, speaking to activists here disappointed that Democrats have been unable to advance key immigration and gun control measures, urged them Saturday to focus their efforts on the midterm elections while brushing off questions about her own future ambitions.

Embracing her "joyful warrior" title, she said she decided: "We've got to just go into 2018 and take back the flag."

Harris's visit to Nevada was more evidence that the invisible primary for 2020 is well underway. Because of the size and potential depth of the Democratic field, many party strategists believe the potential contenders must make a decision about whether they are running between mid-November and the New Year.

But during her trip, the California senator once again brushed off questions about her White House ambitions.

The first time I really knew of her was when I saw her in the documentary The Case Against 8 (about the gay marriage prop. in CA). She officiated at the first gay marriage in CA once the ruling came down....
