“NEXT UP”
I kick things off on “Next Up” with the return of “8 for ’28,” where I break down how the Democratic presidential field is already shifting in the invisible primary.
I walk through the latest changes in my rankings, why Gavin Newsom and Josh Shapiro remain on top, which candidates are gaining momentum, and the big questions each contender still has to answer on the road to 2028.
I’m also joined by two of the smartest and most experienced presidential strategists, Karen Skelton and Patti Solis Doyle, for a candid — and at times raucous — conversation about who truly belongs in the top tier, whether Pete Buttigieg has hit a ceiling, how narrow Kamala Harris’s path back may be, and which potential candidates Democrats are watching most closely.
Plus, an in-depth interview with Michigan Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers on why he’s running again, his vision for Michigan’s future, and a fun rapid round to close it out.
