Sometimes, I feel like the generational divide is as important as the partisan divide. I donā€™t begrudge Senator Feinsteinā€™s support for Joe Biden, though I believe it misguided, especially if itā€™s based on ā€œexperienceā€ and not ā€œpolicyā€. But then thereā€™s shit like this:

When asked whether she would support Harris, Feinstein said: ā€œIā€™m a big fan of Sen. Harris, and I work with her. But sheā€™s brand-new here, so it takes a little bit of time to get to know somebody.ā€

Harris was elected to the Senate in 2016. Her office declined to comment Thursday.

Iā€™m sure the fact that she had worked with Biden for decades plays a role in her current semi-endorsement. But I canā€™t help but feel that this is two steps away from McCaskillā€™s line about AOC being a shiny object.
