The 2024 primary is so flat that politicians are making their own entertainment and, perhaps, setting the stage for 2028.
Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, center right, speaks to reporters after filling out forms to get on the Republican Presidential Primary ballot in New Hampshire on Wednesday, Oct. 18, 2023. | Steven Senne/APGOFFSTOWN, N.H. — Vivek Ramaswamy and Rep. Ro Khanna sat under hot stage lights and the gaze of a half-dozen TV cameras, clad in near-matching navy blue suits and clashing over foreign policy and nuclear power.
The 2024 campaign “is basically one big sideshow,” longtime New Hampshire GOP strategist Mike Dennehy said. “You’ve got to get attention, you’ve got to get on voters’ minds. And for most of the past six months it’s been mostly focusing on everything happening legally with the former president. That has drowned out a lot of stuff,” he said.
And so, he said, when Khanna extended an entreaty on social media, Ramaswamy saw it as an opportunity for “practicing what I preach.” It was Ramaswamy who chose to set the debate in New Hampshire, where he is hoping for a good primary showing but wherecurrently show him trailing several of his rivals. For Khanna, the forum marked a return to a state where he’s spent time building a network among Democratic activists.
