Sinema has walked a fine line and is just now, since her Impeachment vote, in the process of finding her true legs and asserting herself. She'll be a great Arizona senator, but she's not appropriate for something this important at this moment in time. She's still afraid to say what needs to be said. But hopefully, that is changing.
