This is no time to be on the sidelines.
Stacey Abrams: Stand up and be counted. "I do not want to serve in the Senate," says the hugely popular former Georgia Democratic gubernatorial nominee.
Steve Bullock: Stand up and be counted. "My talents are best suited" to an executive role, says Montana's well-liked Democratic governor.
Beto O'Rourke: Stand up and be counted. "That would not be good enough" to serve in the Senate, says the gifted former Democratic congressman from Texas.
Sorry, but what's not "good enough" are those answers. The three could make all the difference in Democrats' uphill quest to take the Senate next year. Instead, they choose to run vanity campaigns for president (or in Abrams's case, await a vice presidential nod) or put themselves in line for a Cabinet post. Ordinarily, I'd respect their wish to do what fulfills them or works best for their families or positions them for future success.

It’s really amazing how the crisis in US politics and government is so similar to the Brexit crisis in the UK.
S.S. Abrahms is anchored in port, waiting for for the call.

Nope. No bias in that “reporting”.
Someone needs to tell these assholes that we are not a democracy. Maybe if they read the Constitution or recited the Pledge of Allegiance, they’d have figured that out.
lol
At least “my hero” or “god-like” didn’t appear :)
Not on paper at least anyway
Hysterical reporting at its finest
It is an opinion piece. The hatred of President Trump and the American Republic is very strong in Dana Milbank.
Hugely portly.
Buoyant.
Well ballasted.
These flakes say this crap anytime a Republican is president, remember GWB? Wasn’t he also Hitler? Dumb as a monkey? Entitled? Whatever
For commies “Democracy” means that commies control EVERYTHING
There, that makes more sense.
How many and why are Republicans in Congress giving up and handing over the reins to leftists? People want to know.
The only good thing the DNC can do for the country is for everyone in it to leave and never come back.
He only named 3 clowns and there is plenty of room in that clwon car.
Maybe Dana Milbank needs to check into a rehab center.
The Democrats might actually consider Abrams for VP if they decide they need a black person on the ticket and Kamala has become too toxic and Booker too much of a laughingstock. She would have the advantage of being virtually unknown to the public. But if Warren heads the ticket I think the VP slot will have to be filled by someone with a Y chromosome.
Milbank is just another Leftist drone in that Borg Collective at the ComPost, along with Jennifer Rubin, Eugene Robinson, E.J. Dionne, Max Boot, Greg Sargent, and the rest of those hive-minded zombies. None of them have probably had an independent thought since grade school.
