(1,750 posts)Tester is acting a little stupid. He is not going to win by antagonizing Dems. There is a balance and I think he has lost that balance. He does not have to put himself in a bind by saying he won't break filibuster. Okay? If that is true, he is finished

(232 posts)Going right to the GOP is a guaranteed way to lose for a Dem. Maybe if the candidate was independent can this work. Otherwise the voters might as well vote for the GOP candidate which is how we got saddled with Vance.

(46,366 posts)We have a great candidate in FL running against Scott. Debbie Murcarsel-Powell. We've also got some good Democratic candidates who could flip congressional seats.
Whitney Fox is running against Anna Paulina Looney in St. Pete's district. It is definitely flippable.
