A trio of swing-state senators got a lot of love from their fellow Democrats after voting “guilty” on two articles of impeachment against President Trump Wednesday, as their colleagues hailed them for political courage.

That started rumors repeated by people I know that Morrissey was secretly pro-choice.
All these incredible gifts to a challenger, and not being used ?
=shaking head=
As I said, Milwaukee will be very interesting
