Say what you want about her but she helped save us last year.

Sure, she’s still a radical leftist, but saving the filibuster is pretty darn essential right now. I’m hoping she (and Manchin) hold firm on that point.

Bring me up to date if I’m incorrect on this.

She (and Manchin) certainly got credit for keeping the filibuster in place, but a part of me believes that they were playing a role and actually supported behind the scenes by the dems who didn't actually want the filibuster eliminated, but were too cowardly to say it out loud. If it weren't them, the next most vulnerable dem coming up for reelection would suddenly develop an independent streak.
