In reply to the discussion: Dianne Feinstein, 88, Failing to Recognize Senate Colleagues, Say Sources Fearing for Her Health [View all]Budi
(15,325 posts)9. That sounds like the scenario of my mom's aging life.
The year her husband of 60 years passed on, & nothing was the same, no matter how she tried to believe it was. Her struggle with trying to maintain the same daily life was met with her own issues of age.
Whatever happens for Sen Feinstein, her incredible lifeswork for Women & LGBT, etc, & making it all happen in a "Corporate Man's world", is a credit to her remarkable smarts & savy.
Thank you & much peace to you, Senator.

And if a Republican gets elected because we fumbled this, we lose the Senate majority.

This is so hard to read. I think Sen Feinstein should retire and go enjoy the last years of her life
