She could always cross the aisle. Nothing would stop her from doing it.

Manchin and Sinema will probably vote yes on article one and no on article two.

Romney has dirty hands with Ukraine, he doesn’t want to be investigated next..doesn’t he have Burisma connections as well? I think he will end up voting to acquit, he votes the way that Collins votes, remember, Collins wanted witnesses but she is voting to acquit, those two are like the Bobsy twins, he will ramble on and on about what Trump did was “wrong” but at the end of the day will save his own skin because he knows if he doesn’t he will lose his seat

Regarding the last senatorial election in WV.

If you had to design a candidate that was destined to lose Manchin, you couldn't have done better then Morrissey.

Boring speaker, department store mannequin personality (and still won two state-wide elections somehow!), not a native WV’ian who still kept a house in NoVa (reason was elderly parent- never mind the reason it made bad optics!), ex-pharmaceutical lobbyist (wife still is!), way way too easy to paint as a carpet-bagger! Which Manchin did! Like in most of Appalachia if you're not native it take a long apprenticeship to join the club. Manchin just campaigned with the theme “ I'm a native son & your not!”. It still works here. (Unless you're rich like Rockefeller - oodles of money beats native son prejudice!)

"Trump’s coattails should return the AL seat to the GOP"

The last I read, Jeff Sessions was 21 points ahead of anyone else.

Red State Democrats don’t have it easy but they’ll either split the difference or commit political suicide.

But don’t we need him as Attorney General again?

Don’t forget Tester. He also represents a state that went for Trump.

:: Red State Democrats ::

Did you know that the French word for “red” is “rouge”?

just saw a headline at AZ Central that said Sinema probably won’t vote to acquit.

In her situation she needs the party to fund her. Their checkbooks are directly connected to her shorthairs

The GOP can open its checkbook just the same for her were she to decide to make the jump to the other side of the Senate.

I'll throw my shoe at the television if Romney tells us how much it pains him to vote guilty for impeachment.

Romney is positively green with envy that he is not in the White House. The pompous louse thinks he is the likely candidate to step into a POTUS election race were Trump impeached. Romney has not only lost support in Utah with his personal vendetta against Trump. Romney has awakened the sleeping giant, and we have had more than enough claptrap from this poseur.

Romney is skeert enough to realize he doesn’t want POTUS to say, “we don’t say his name.”

Next thing you now...health problems?
