Maybe she's a better legislator than writer.

No, thanks.

It kills me that she's all in on Warren

My company has a book club and she had the featured title last month. That's all I've got on the ol' Smarshmeister.

I did not read her book, but have generally enjoyed her articles. Did you read the book?

chum1 · « **Reply #8 on:** April 23, 2019, 06:53:03 PM »

We decided we didn't like her here.

I wondered how AZ would react to the governor appointing the person who literally just lost the election for the other senate seat. Seemed a bit tonedeaf

Montana's popular Democratic governor.

I've always fought for the people of Montana. Together, we expanded health care, protected public lands, banned dark money in politics & more. Now I'm taking that fight to the US Senate. Let’s make Washington work more like Montana. Join us: https://t.co/vyPPioB0tJ #MTSen #MTpol pic.twitter.com/6VuCKsNTeW

Senate Majority PAC w "relatively modest investments in Colorado and Maine, indicating confidence in the party’s advantage in those races as well as the fundraising capacity of the candidates themselves"https://t.co/itiXoH0z80

Sign that S Collins is in serious trouble...

I think that poll reflects what would happen if Trump wasn't also on the ballot.

Man, does kansas have the morality to reject KKKobach yet again?

Rage Against the McKee · « **Reply #20 on:** April 17, 2020, 09:43:08 AM »

Kobach and Trump are basically the same ideologically. Trump will win, and I don't understand why a Trump supporter would not also support Kobach.

Tester won in `16. No reason Bullock can't win. We never see Daines back from Washington, he's not a very strong candidate here.
