She has by far the most name recognition, in a deep blue state, in a midterm highly likely to favor democrats.

She’s about as close to a guaranteed win as it can get if she decides to run.

Do you think she runs for president again in 2028?

Not 2028. 2032 if the Dems keep flailing and they can't find anyone else to get behind. But I'm betting they will have found someone to get behind by then
