1. Does she care? Nt

[Irish_Dem]

3. No. She is being paid much more by someone else.

[XanaDUer2]

4. I'm glad they're doing it

But I don't think she cares. But, at least they're doing something

[Irish_Dem]

6. Right, it has symbolic value.

[Baitball Blogger]

7. But she's losing the votes of anyone who supports Emily's list.

[Irish_Dem]

8. She doesn't appear to care about those votes.

[Sherman A1]

2. Good

The money needs to dry up right away.

[agingdem]

10. she'll get Republican money....

and she will get primaried and lose..if she runs as an Independent or a Republican she will lose...Sinema is a wannabe middle school mean girl with a mega maniacal ego and no cognitive awareness..she is so pathologically self absorbed she is unable to grasp the depth of disgust that surrounds her...I hope every Democratic donor follows Emily's List and publicly denounces her...in the short term she won't give a damn but if the reviled other side takes back the Senate and "shoves her to the back of the bus" she'll feign remorse and regret and promise to do the right thing by her constituents the next time...and no will will care

[Sherman A1]

12. Likely so, but that is beyond the control of any Democrat

I hope she is gone from public life as soon as is possible.

[agingdem]

13. I wish there was a recall provision in the Constitution that

specifically for unfit House/Senate member.s.I read the Founding Fathers pondered such a provision but let it go..Sinema can be expelled from the Senate but that's not likely

[Escurumbele]

18. I agree, it will be very nice to not see her face again.

[BonnieJW]

29. You can donate to primary her

Primarysinema.com

5. I don't think Cinema cares. She'll never be re-elected after stabbing Arizona Democrats in the

back, repeatedly and thoughtlessly. Arizona needs a strong Senate Democratic primary candidate, and to hell with Cinema. She can add her one-term-and-done Senate career to her dilettantish resume.

[Hortensis]

9. Good for Emily's List! Emily's endorses a broad range of pro-choice

Democratic women, and that's been key to their success in getting Democratic women into office. But these are important places to draw the line -- to insist candidates protect voting rights and to be what they lead those who helped elect them to think they were.

[onecaliberal]

11. Someone else is funding her but this is the right thing and had to be done.

I hope all legit funders abandon her as she has abandoned America.

[drray23]

14. I don't think she cares.

She will do her six years pilling up money and then after her term expires she will be rewarded by cushy appointments on a bunch of corporate boards or a think tank.

[backscatter712]

15. Everyone's done with Karen Sinema.

Emily's List will be helpful to primary her sorry ass.

[OMGWTF]

16. It's spelled "Sinema" BTW.

[sop]

20. They're calling her "Cinema" because she's such a drama queen.

[BonnieJW]

30. They should call her

Enema

[Crowman2009]

32. A Razzie award winning drama queen at that.

[backscatter712]

35. Karen Cinema she is!

[Takket]

17. Somehow I think she'll still be able to come up with the money

[LetsGoBiden]

19. After last night

After last night And the Republican embrace I really don’t think she cares she has millions of dollars already in the bank plus millions more of dark money probably with billionaire backers she could switch parties and be hailed a hero to Republicans she would get their full vote and pull Democrats with her we need to be very careful we are on the razors edge for democracy I mean they would literally consider her the New Age Joan of Arc we wouldn’t even get to primary her if she did it before the election because senators have a six year term unlike house members which are every two years I’m praying for our nation more than ever

[Traildogbob]

21. None of the GQP

Cares about votes. They are fixing that. And I am tired of hearing History will not look kindly on them. The have that fixed as well. Obviously they do not think there will be a future to look back in history, they are fixing that as well. Their play book, take all power, take everything you can grab on the way out, and live it up like there is no tomorrow. Their kids, fuck em, spoil em while there is a country, or planet left. And the “I got mine” mentality applies to their own damn kids. They give em a little trickle down and that will do them well as long as they have.
I thought Jesus had a thing about greed, lying, killing and destroying the planet. They all gonna play with yachts and billionaire toys while the exist. No fear if he’ll, cause they do not believe. They use God as a grift. Or, the eye of the needle is big as fuck, and they are smaller than a camel.

23. Cinema: A Two-Dimensional Presentation Of Manufactured Images

Sounds exactly right to me....

[tenderfoot]

33. Cinema

eom

[Autumn]

24. She will be the first to bolt to the republican side. She has more to gain from them.

[Nevilledog]

26. They'll parade her around, but they'll ignore her. She'd lose all power

[Autumn]

27. She won't think that. All she sees is the attention.

[Nevilledog]

28. She is delusional.

[Hekate]

25. I remember when EMILY was a hopeful start-up. Now they are powerful. Sinema's lost reputation--

Not just money. She has outed herself as an opportunist and a non-feminist.

I know she has new friends, now — big powerful men in a man’s world that only cares about itself. They are on the side of the Trumpistas, and that’s where she has squarely put herself.

And she has Senate Dems over a barrel, just like Manchin does. They have to work with those two — it’s just that voters expected so much more from Sinema.

[SunSeeker]

31. Yes, she misrepresented who she was, unlike Manchin. nt
