to get new leadership in the senate? Is it unheard of? Dude is terrible...


Is it really just who has been there the longest or some shit?

I mean, I sort of get why Beto didn't run for senate initially. He was gassed up. We were gassed up for him. But now? Petey is eating his lunch and the writing is on the wall.

I'm not sure how you switch races and save face, but dude should try.

These two dudes running for Pres rather than Senate is insane. Obviously it falls on the candidates and their people to have some sense, but Dem leadership really dropped the ball here.

Exactly. I imagine we read the same article- the one that breaks all this down and talks about how the GOP gets the importance of power. You have to have power to do anything. The Dems just don't get it.

Is there a frontrunner candidate for Maine yet?
