That would be a poor choice for the Dems to make. That is a losing ticket.
Well, aside from Millerpig's craving to pitch insults, there's no earthly reason for anyone to say or think that that will be who runs. One, defeated candidates generally don't run again (the Turd notwithstanding); two, even the Democrats now realize that a WOOMUN has no chance of being elected President. Both Clinton and Harris would have won easily if they were male.
I think the Dems should go with someone like Andy Beshear.
I predict the party establishment will push Newsome. In my opinion that would be a poor choice.

No "e": Newsom.
If Newsom becomes the candidate, we'll hear endless barfing from MAGA about the California coastal liberal elite babble babble babble. California-bashing has been a MAGA obsession ever since Trump got a couple of his scam projects there killed off.
It can't be ignored, though, that fundraising with Newsom as the candidate would be easier than with almost anyone else. Balancing that consideration is no home state bonus, as CA will go for the Democrat candidate no matter who they are. Beshear might bring along a state that the Dems would otherwise have no chance of winning.
I really am worried that the Republipigs will find some way to massively fuck with both the midterms and the 2028 elections. It's not at all far-fetched to imagine Trump declaring a Democrat victory "invalid" and "fraudulent." After all, he's said that any elections Democrats win, they must have been cheating.
