Correct. They are measuring and arranging the catbird seats now.
Edit: Does NOT appear to need either party . . .
Ding ding ding we have a winner.
It would put a major crimp on the media and the democrats.
My guess would be Mitch is promising manchin weak unsupported Republican competition in his next election if he stays on board.
We’d still be a handful of votes short…
Even Obama wasn’t running the show when he was the White House pRESIDENT.
He had no idea what he was doing either.
So what. I’d love for him to become a GOP. We’d stop most judges and the voting rights bill. Biden has already got 40 judges appointed. Only Reagan has done the same in history. Sometimes most of you don’t think longer then 10 minutes.
True, but Caliph Baraq with the help of a fawning media cult projected a bit of competence.
EVERYBODY realizes SlowJoe is simply a guy reading the teleprompter. But the libs would take anybody who wasn’t Trump.
If the Democrats keep attacking him, he just might jump ship.
It would be a huge blow to the Democrats.
I’d agree but if they pass the voting bill, it’s all over. At least Mcconnell wouldn’t allow that crap on the floor.
I agree, it would put the final nail in the Biden agenda. Now is not the time to be a purist.
Because we are going to take the Senate in 2022.
“The Manchin-ian Candidate”
Given Mitch’s record on caving recently.... he might be replaced as minority/majority leader... been a few calls for that recently...
There are a *LOT* of Americans who are neither fanatical (or faithful if you want to call it that) Democrats or Republicans,
A lot of people I know utterly loath both left and right ideologies, both the utopian ‘progressives’ and the people who want to return to the values and social roles of the middle to late 20th century (or before). “Ideology sucks” is a common refrain to my observation.
Pretty much the only people I know who think Trump won are here on FR, and the only people who don’t think the current PResident doesn’t have dementia are on liberal boards.
There is a *massive* middle that is merely voting for who they hate the least, but egos on both right and left don’t want to see that.
He’d fit right in with our stable of jellyfish GOPe Senators!

Sable of jellyfish! LOL!
A lot of times, winning crucial votes in the Senate requires a lot of force training, and it sometimes looks ugly. But I'm more than happy that we sank that BBB bill, because that was the killer.
Actually the bill coming up after the new year on “election reform“ will be the killer of our constitutional republic if it passes.
Give them Cheney and take Manchin.
Fauci changes definitions all the time. I say we change “Spine” and “balls” to, see, “Manchin” or “Manchins”.
