117th Congress: DEMS IN DISARRAY!!!111!!

[psych]

I think in the last Senate, of the 50 Senators you guys counted as "D's," there were actually only something like 47 or 48. The others were "Independents." But, they were persuaded to vote with D's on enough issues to give the D's majority control in the Senate.

I would be shocked if somewhere behind the scenes the Democratic leadership in the House isn't at least thinking about or talking about or exploring the possibility of how they can get to 218. They aren't publicly acknowledging it because there is too much political value in letting the Republicans in the House engage in their spat, but they are thinking about it.

This might be your future, right here. It's entirely possible the Republican party, as represented in the House, fractures into two separate groups. Then what?

Then you are right back to what I was talking about earlier. Who can come up with a way to get to 218. Yep, it's as fragile as your coalition, but it's better than having no coalition at all.

Holy sh-t, Sanders and King are actually independents who merely caucus with Democrats?? I never f-king knew that.
Wait, wait, did that mean Bernie had to officially switch his party from independent to Democrat and then back again to run for POTUS???
Until you accept everyone on here knows as much, if not more than you, when it comes to these types of conversations, your condescension gets in the way of your posts.

...Moving down the hierarchy, state Senator Mallory McMorrow (keep it in your pants, Kep) earned a name for herself statewide in the past year.

... the only man I could see getting the nod from the Ds is career legacy admit Andy Levin, who was redistricted out of Congress last year and lost his primary challenge against Stevens.

Is that Carl Levin's kid? If it is, gawd dam I'm old.

That was the beginning of the end for Sicatoka. He used to be a pretty cool poster and then he started to act exactly as you describe and a few years later most people blocked him.

state Senator Mallory McMorrow (keep it in your pants, Kep)

Noting to worry about with her hair up, but

TBH, though, too horsey. Nay.

Excellent choice. Get it done Michigan.
