I think Schumer is holding the winning cards, though - committee seats. I also think he is not willing to put up with her PITAness, since he has other opponents in the House and Moscow Mitch to fight.
So the Is don't have a sleazy side, along with no platform? I always considered Is as RWNJs too embarrass to say they were Republican, you are the same thing.
Lieberman had no shame - he won as an independent because Republicans knew their candidate didn't stand a chance, so they voted for Lieberman. Same logic that the Democrats used in Utah this year, but more successful.
I wonder if Moscow mitch can bribe "manchin" to switch parties too, the "moscow" will actually have to try to govern instead of block and derail. I think "moscow" will find governing impossible.
I honestly do not care if she splits the vote if she runs for senate again. Fuck it, run someone anyway, if Dems win they win, if the Repub wins, they're still junior senator. Find another seat and take that instead.
If the Dem leadership were smart they'd go with progressive candidates across the board, our policies are popular and programs are sustainable with wide-reaching benefits for all. Unfortunately the candidates that they are most violently opposed to are actual progressives, and the "leadership" has been known to even fund Rethugs to ensure that a progressive isn't elected.
Only one more step to full-on Tulsi Gabbardism and you know she has it in her.

Don't Tucson and Phoenix have about half of AZ votes?

I don't understand this, since she could ally with Manchin and they'd still be powerful. She's not running again, and I have my doubts about Manchin.

haha, I just assume lol
Love the "Twilight Zone" reference. The Jack in the Box made me scream.
She likes to show off her guns!
She wants to keep her committee assignments and if she's a full-on Republican, she won't get to keep those, since Dems control the Senate.

I think the centrists are arguing with the progressives over who gets the credit for this, not the blame.
How to solve this problem bitch? Get a real Democrat to oppose her in the next election cycle.

Make her fucking irrelevant
