(54,436 posts)I only met her once, and it was when she was running for the Senate for the first time. I was thinking MAN, do I hope she gets in!
I am fairly convinced she was Joe Biden's first choice for VP, too. She deserves as high a post as Schumer can put her in.

Never mind. Carry on

(7,228 posts)The top leadership in both parties reminds me of the photos of the Soviet-era Politburo. People who think and act as if it was 1950s and 60s, too far from the real lives of everyday Russian society.
We have the same problem; we just wont admit it.
Gens X, Y, and Z who have needs and demands, are politically ignored. You cant run a country like this as it will lead to conflict.
I think this move is a good thing. And Im saying this as a Boomer!
