The favorite-son dynamic has waned as politicians like Barack Obama and President Donald Trump — both of whom leveraged their star power and media savvy to surge past their better established competitors — have won the presidency and others similarly seek to capture lightning-in-the-bottle and bolt to the top of the field
And with the Democratic field the size of a major league baseball team, depending on how you count, perhaps it's unsurprising that other traditional heuristics of support have been tough to come by. Gillibrand has thus far only been endorsed by one member of New York's congressional delegation, and has similarly been unable to lock up support with other New York elected officials.

The origins of the program, the existence of which the Pentagon confirmed on Friday, are being revealed publicly for the first time by POLITICO and the New York Times in nearly simultaneous reports on Saturday.
