I think Schiff has plenty of charisma and name recognition..

The fact that he is dealing with one of the greatest threats to America ever, makes him absolutely serious. Neither Mueller or Schiff are showing their soft funny sides and I bet they both have them.

Besides, we have a lot to get through before a GE. Lots...

Let them both finish up their current assignments and let's go from there.
