For politicians, scandal and controversy can be bad. But becoming the object of ridicule can be even more devastating. So if Kamala Harris happens to read these words, we'd advise her NOT to watch CNN's 7 am Christmas Day hour. What she'd find under the tree will be something worse than a lump of coal. It will be a steaming pile of . . . ridicule. It's almost 2026, so why not a horse race segment on 2028 presidential contenders? After Dem Meghan Hays and Republican Melik Abdul named their favorites, Abdul observed: "Notably, who we're not talking about: Kamala Harris."Host John Berman put it to Hays: "Why aren't we talking about her, Meghan?" Abdul burst into laughter, amused to see Hays thusly put on the spot, and even Berman couldn't suppress a grin. Hays proceeded to engage in an extended bout of nervous laughter. She questioned whether Harris has a base and could raise money.
