Schiff, though I can see Lee winning in a round two. It's really impressive how fast Katie Porter's career has gone up in flames. Went from being a nationally-recognized progressive to a failing Senate candidate reviled by the activist wing and establishment of the party alike. She should drop back down to the House while she can, especially after Min's recent scandal.

I don't disagree that she'd probably be better off holding her House district down, but what's the evidence for her career going up in flames, being a failing Senate candidate (10 months before the primary) or being reviled by both the activist/establishment wings?

I know that I haven't been posting this year as much as I used to, but what have I missed in this race that so many are voting for Lee over Porter or Schiff?

I would have said Schiff, by the way, but is there actually something to Lee now being the front-runner? Or is it an Atlas overreaction to something?

It doesn't help that most of the explanations/overreactions here have to include some kind of anti-Porter editorializing from the pro-Lee side (But not much anti-Schiff editorializing)
