Newsom is an extremely strong candidate. Vance has several critical vulnerabilities that can demoralize right wing voters if the election is handled properly, and the Republicans really don't have anybody else. Rubio maybe, but Rubio won't be able to get ahead of Vance.

Trump had more than several critical vulns as well which did not dissuade voters. The electorate isn't as predictable as many try to make it sound

Trump was able to moralize his voters, despite his weaknesses, by using a kind of charisma that Vance utterly lacks.

		I think Vance isn't planning on using charisma, but violence.
