8. Maybe... what do you think?

I've held off for so long on endorsing Gov Newsom. Why? He's slick, he's good-looking, he used to be married to the godawful former girlfriend of Trump Junior. Oh, and he's from California.

Okay. I can deal with all that - and more. Truth be told, I spent many happy years in California, and wish I still lived there. And one shouldn't be penalized for being good-looking and slick.

Also, I'm willing to concede that love can do ridiculous things to people, including causing them to marry the son-of-Trump-screeching-Mimi-former girlfriend-with an abundantly botoxed face.

So Gov Newsom, I give you my endorsement, my blessing, and perhaps a few bucks for your campaign. Stand strong, and we former Californians will stand with you. Go get 'em!
