As the Senate prepares for yet another brutal Supreme Court nomination fight, one particularly sensitive issue is creating apprehension among Democrats: what to do with 87-year-old Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the ranking member of the Judiciary Committee.
Feinstein, the oldest member of the Senate, is widely respected by senators in both parties, but she has noticeably slowed in recent years. Interviews with more than a dozen Democratic senators and aides show widespread concern over whether the California Democrat is capable of leading the aggressive effort Democrats need against whoever President Donald Trump picks to replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. ... Feinstein sometimes gets confused by reporters’ questions, or will offer different answers to the same question depending on where or when she’s asked. Her appearance is frail. And Feinstein's genteel demeanor, which seems like it belongs to a bygone Senate era, can lead to trouble with an increasingly hard-line Democratic base uninterested in collegiality or bipartisan platitudes. ...

Say what? Is there a joke or a pun in there somewhere that one is missing?
Party of death getting long in the tooth
“...more than a dozen Democratic senators and aides show widespread concern over whether the California Democrat is capable of leading..”
Their pure hatred for women and the elderly knows no bounds. (Yes I’m commenting on a selective edit as if the party roles were reversed)
I have no sympathy for this dishonest, now doddering parasite.

Agreed.
But I have a question.
Has anyone seen or noticed a group of young, normal, mildly reasonable democrat males or females, who might restore sanity to the party. You know, people who can calmly discuss the problems that face government with an eye to solving problems.
Not being Smarty Pants, but I have NOT seen ONE.
Just the AOCs, muslims who hate us, old people who hate us and screaming banshees.
The Party needs some new blood. There are MANY republicans I can name.
2024 is a long way off, but maybe he'll be trying to redeem himself after voting for Trump's removal from office.

Lust for power, that, and her masters won't let her quit.
70 million American Catholics should be watching this closely.
She has my utmost confidence.
I suspect the tiff with commie China has vastly reduced the adrenochrome supply...
Genteel demeanor?
ROFL!
Where was any of that during Kavanaugh hearings?
Only the RINOs.
Balderdash! DiChiFi did a masterful job in confounding the Kavanaugh hearings at the last minute with kickapoo charges with no merit. The only thing that will slow DiFi is when Mephistopheles comes for payment for granting her billionaire status with power.
Mephi-boy
You can have your Harvey Weinstein
You can have your Jeffrey Epstein
You can have your Rod Rosenstein
You can have your Diane Feinstein
Make mine a Mark Styn with a Coldstein
