It might get better if, as some reports have said, this Friday is the filing deadline for the Senate Primary!!
Oops - this from politico - By disclosing his retirement one day before the filing deadline, the idea was that no Democrat would qualify for the primary ballot and the party’s state central committee could tap their favored candidate.
But doesn't this still give the state Democrats an opportunity to bypass the pesky cross-over votes in an open Primary, and fill the vacancy on the November ballot with anybody the state Party bosses choose?
They can pitch horsehoes to pick their candidate if they want.
Maybe an “Up Yours” to Obama?
