KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: ‘Top Tier’ Candidate Campaign Death Watch.
Harris folded up shop in New Hampshire last week and has now put all of her eggs in the Iowa basket. As of this writing, Real Clear Politics has Harris in sixth place there.
What’s most stunning is that Harris has spent more time than any other candidate in Iowa the past couple of months. If you look at the chart on RCP you can see that she has been cratering since September, indicating that she’s the kind of candidate who does worse once the votes get to know her better.
Almost Hillary Clinton-esque.
None of the potential nominees pass my “Could I Stand to See You on TV for the Next Four Years” test, but Harris is worse than most.
