Cannot figure out who she thinks she's appealing to mcar Mar 2021 #1

Likely the donors. aocommunalpunch Mar 2021 #5

Obviously not the same donors as Kelly mcar Mar 2021 #26

Sinema is a Ghost NonPC Mar 2021 #43

I have no doubt that she could flip, BUT the QMAGAts will not Celerity Mar 2021 #53

Doubt she would survive a Republican primary. temporary311 Mar 2021 #65

Exactly.. that was always Cha Mar 2021 #59

Right? Are her donors really that different? mcar Mar 2021 #61

Obviously not voters. So who does she serve? Irish_Dem Mar 2021 #68

That's the question, isn't it? mcar Mar 2021 #69

Asking the following question usually gives some answers: Irish_Dem Mar 2021 #71

Yes. mcar Mar 2021 #72

More proof that centrist triangulating does not work wellst0nev0ter Mar 2021 #2

Exactly USAFRetired_Liberal Mar 2021 #4

More proof that centrist triangulating means appealing to big donors not voters. hedda_foil Mar 2021 #7

If she is a centrist WA-03 Democrat Mar 2021 #14

Good wellst0nev0ter Mar 2021 #18

Her stunt will remain in the minds of all who follow politics reasonably closely. hlthe2b Mar 2021 #3

Should she get a primary challenger? Qutzupalotl Mar 2021 #6

I hate when senators act like Tree Lady Mar 2021 #28

AZ's minimum wage is $12.15, and she held on that in part based on AZ polls. Hortensis Mar 2021 #8

More people in Arizona voted for a minimum wage increase than they voted for Sinema AZProgressive Mar 2021 #11

Ultimately, the vote never should have come up AZSkiffyGeek Mar 2021 #12

I'm more upset at Sinema than I am with Sanders AZProgressive Mar 2021 #17

They got their minimum wage increase. This is now. Hortensis Mar 2021 #15

I did Day Labor in Arizona when the minimum wage was a lot lower AZProgressive Mar 2021 #19

So, how do you feel about Sanders scuttling the national MW increase? Hortensis Mar 2021 #25

They did good adding as much as possible in the initial bill AZProgressive Mar 2021 #29

We've had progressive government since inception, and Democrats are Hortensis Mar 2021 #32

THIS is progressivism in action: Hortensis Mar 2021 #39

It doesn't matter what it was increased to - the Parliamentarian said no to reconciliation AZSkiffyGeek Mar 2021 #20

Her statement may have been clear kcr Mar 2021 #33

I agree it has cost her AZSkiffyGeek Mar 2021 #34

I'm not a big Bernie fan kcr Mar 2021 #36

Yeah - that's really where she fucked up AZSkiffyGeek Mar 2021 #38

I have two problems with her dsc Mar 2021 #40

What is your evidence that "no Hispanic or native American will be able to vote" former9thward Mar 2021 #56

FYI. The proposed bill started at 11.00/hr and gradually increased over 5 years. vsrazdem Mar 2021 #48

Yes. Slow, but AZ's progressives did what they had to to make it HAPPEN Hortensis Mar 2021 #52

Arizona voted for it as a ballot measure AZProgressive Mar 2021 #54

I'm from California originally, where the political parties are heavily Hortensis Mar 2021 #57

Elections in states like Arizona are all about base turnout USAFRetired_Liberal Mar 2021 #13

Sinema didn't win by activating the base AZSkiffyGeek Mar 2021 #16

Mark Kelly won by a wider margin wellst0nev0ter Mar 2021 #21

Was he left of Sinema? AZSkiffyGeek Mar 2021 #22

At this point, Kelly is clearly to the left of Sinema wellst0nev0ter Mar 2021 #41

Yes, there's no doubt at all Kelly's left of Sinema. He's been in too short Hortensis Mar 2021 #67

Do you have a link to those Arizona polls about the minimum wage? Kalistos Mar 2021 #31

There were statements when the state voters passed the increase AZSkiffyGeek Mar 2021 #35

You don't need any polls. The voters passed a minumum wage vsrazdem Mar 2021 #49
