Right now, it looks like Steve Hilton vs. Xavier Becerra will face each other in the general election, though that won\u2019t be certain for days \u2014 but we do know Porter won\u2019t be in the final. She plummeted from her position as the early front-runner and darling of progressives last year after questions about her temperament surfaced and she never left.<\/p>\n<p>When ABC News ran headlines like this last month, readers knew her campaign was finished: &#8220;Katie Porter fights questions on temperament as the only woman in crowded California gubernatorial race.<\/p>\n<p>Experts are mixed over whether she should have raised outbursts that went viral.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Porter wasn\u2019t the only casualty among former members of Congress who were only months ago measuring drapes for their Sacramento offices.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/katie-porter-interview-goes-viral-journalists-marvel-democrats-meltdown\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>KATIE PORTER INTERVIEW GOES VIRAL AS JOURNALISTS MARVEL AT DEMOCRAT&#8217;S MELTDOWN<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>PBS congressional correspondent Lisa Desjardins reported on former Congressman <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/eric-swalwell\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Eric Swalwell<\/a> after his implosion and exit, not just from the race, but from public life:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Rumors first rose over social media for the past few days, but starting on Friday and over the weekend, we saw reporting first from The San Francisco Chronicle and then CNN, bombshell, specific accusations against Congressman Swalwell.<\/p>\n<p>CNN said that four women accused Swalwell of misconduct.

Now, those charges range from unsolicited explicit messages or nude photos, to unwanted touching, to one accusation of rape.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/jonathan-turley-eric-swalwells-enablers-knew-truth-protected-anyway\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>JONATHAN TURLEY: ERIC SWALWELL&#8217;S ENABLERS KNEW THE TRUTH \u2014 AND PROTECTED HIM ANYWAY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So Porter and Swalwell both fell from favor among Democrats when issues of their personal conduct overwhelmed progressives\u2019 approval of their far-left policy positions.<\/p>\n<p>That hasn\u2019t happened to the presumptive Democratic Senate nominee in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/us-regions\/northeast\/maine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Maine<\/a>, Graham Platner \u2014 yet. As the primary up north is Tuesday, June 9, it is late in the day for Democrats to swap out Platner for someone more palatable. Gov. Janet Mills suspended her campaign, but her name is still on the ballot, as is David Costello\u2019s, but Democrats are standing proudly behind the troubled candidate with the Nazi tattoo and a list of scandals that continues to grow.<\/p>\n<p>This drama must make at least Porter marvel at the scale of the left\u2019s double standard.

That\u2019s why most Democrats won\u2019t comment on Platner now and why Schumer went into his endless-loop response.<\/p>\n<p>The explanation of the Democrats\u2019 2026 double standard is simple: They don\u2019t have a fallback plan in Maine. They are overcommitted. Gov. Mills announced the suspension of her campaign at the end of April. Sen. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/elizabeth-warren\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Elizabeth Warren<\/a> had thrown in with Platner in March, joining Sens. Martin Heinrich, Ruben Gallego and Bernie Sanders in Platner\u2019s parade, and Mills must have concluded that there was no fighting the far left of her party.<\/p>\n<p>Some of Platner\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/platner-hot-seat-maine-voters-rip-horrible-comments-reddit-scandal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">outrageous Reddit posts had come<\/a> to light when Warren joined up, but his attacks on fellow soldiers, both living and dead, had not, nor had his troubling texts to women other than his wife.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The drive to force Mills out succeeded, but when Platner\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/platner-called-ptsd-excuse-bull-2020-post-cites-struggle-explain-online-controversies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">peccadillos mounted in May<\/a>, there was no one to turn to. California Democrats had a long list of replacements for Porter and Swalwell. That wasn\u2019t the case in Maine. If Democrats give up on Platner, they are giving up on their chance of gaining a net four Senate seats and getting Schumer\u2019s title changed from minority leader back to majority leader next year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sunk costs&#8221; have crippled many a business and life decision, and they plague politics too. Sunk costs are expenses or investments that have already been incurred and cannot be recovered. Rational decisions focus on future costs and benefits, not past expenditures. Sunk costs can lead to emotional decisions in business and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/finance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">personal finances<\/a>. And politics.<\/p>\n<p>Continued support for Platner will lead to more embarrassments such as Schumer\u2019s on Tuesday. Every new story about Platner will see reporters hustling after high-profile Democrats asking for answers. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/house-of-representatives\/republicans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Republicans<\/a> have lived this political nightmare before and learned that there is no upside to sticking with a candidate whose campaign can\u2019t possibly succeed, and about whom more awful stories are likely to appear.<\/p>\n<p>We have to wait to see what Katie Porter has to say about this double standard, if she says anything at all.<\/p>\n<p><i>Hugh Hewitt is a Fox News contributor and host of &#8220;<\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/hughhewitt.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><i>The Hugh Hewitt Show<\/i><\/a><i>&#8221; heard weekday afternoons from 3 PM to 6 PM ET on the Salem Radio Network, and simulcast on Salem News Channel.
