so for me he is out, for now. I'd like to see him run for Feinstein's seat next time, though.

Katie Porter would be good. Ted Lieu would be good also.

I think we need (especially) Adam Schiff too much in the House or he would be on the list as well.

I'm a huge Katie Porter fan.

Did you see the video of her talking about her minivan?






The best.

Oh my God she'd be an amazing Treasury Secretary, finding all the crap that Mnuchin has been getting away with for the past 4 years.

Those would be my suggestions.
Katie is so damn effective at communicating economic realities.
Barbara is very liberal and would help maintain diversity.
Adam earned it from his excellent though impossible work last fall.

was likely the leading contender.

Ted Lieu would be an excellent choice. Karen Bass? The mayor of LA? Katie Hill? Ro Khanna?

I like Swalwell, but not sure he is the right choice at this time.
