Stupid statement by Senator Claire McCaskill

Electorate in America want something new.

"Sanders and Biden combined have spent 80 years in Washington, D.C." Saying it as a bad thing.

How is that worse than Trump having zero years in Washington?

of the impeachment hearing. Now I don't like her at all again - too opinionated and not good opinions.

most Americans don't see life long stints in DC as a good thing. She makes a good point. Clinton, Bush, Obama and Trump all had little to no DC experience.
