23. Because I don't understand what you mean by "this time".

"That's not going to work this time"
Since Jun 2nd, there is no alternative (even if all the votes haven't been counted yet, Becerra *IS* putatively our only option. Yes, it might be Steyer, we don't know yet). But Saying Becerra won't work "this time" ignores the reality of the situation.
If by some extraordinary misfortune (IMHO) we get a choice between Becerra and Steyer, (rather than Becerra and Hilton), my money is on Becerra every time.
I'd vote for Steyer if he was the only dem choice on the November ballot, but he isn't getting a penny of my money. I have, and will continue, to support Becerra financially through November.
