Really. You want Manchin to go over to the repubs? Have you noticed that Feterman is in the hospital and Feinstein isn't doing all that well either. The current Senate is, effectively, 50 v 49, but if Manchin was forced over to the Repubs, it would be 50-49.

My comment was based on his history Buckeyeblue Mar 2023 #54

This headline is deceitful clickbait. Manchin did not "decline to endorse Biden." Hortensis Mar 2023 #14

Sounds like Manchin is going to run for Senate ? OnDoutside Mar 2023 #16

Biden hasn't declared yet Raine Mar 2023 #17

Be real, Manchin counts towards Democrats controlling the Senate. elocs Mar 2023 #19

I believe he has voted for Republican judicial nominees also. nt Autumn Mar 2023 #26

Do you think no other Democrats have voted for Republican judicial nominees? onenote Mar 2023 #47

He's hardly the only one to take that position onenote Mar 2023 #20

Ocasio-Cortez won't commit to backing Biden in 2024: 'We'll cross that bridge when we get to it' lapucelle Mar 2023 #25

That's rather decietful, this is what she said, Autumn Mar 2023 #27

Also see this potential rat-fucking from the oh-so problematic Problem Solvers Caucus's parent group Celerity Mar 2023 #30

How interesting that anyone sees Josh Gottheimer as the "true archvillain of the Biden presidency". lapucelle Mar 2023 #32

Gottheimer was not a main point of my reply, BUT some of the Problem Solvers (Gottheimer Celerity Mar 2023 #43

The depiction of Representative Gottheimer featured prominently, lapucelle Mar 2023 #48

It was one of many parts of that reply & not the lede at all. What are your thoughts on the rest of Celerity Mar 2023 #49

Some people have tunnel vision. They see only what they want to see. Autumn Mar 2023 #50

You are certainly free to admit that you find a darkened, grainy, grey scale lapucelle Mar 2023 #53

Rat fuckers indeed. Autumn Mar 2023 #38

How interesting to lump Representative Gottheimer in with putative "ratfuckers" lapucelle Mar 2023 #42

What's deceitful about a CNN headline with a direct quote? lapucelle Mar 2023 #33

You were very selective about it. Fuck that Dana Bash, nothing but shit stirring POS.nt Autumn Mar 2023 #37

I quoted the headline, just like the OP. lapucelle Mar 2023 #40

It's would be rather stupid to endorse someone who hasn't announced they are running. Better to Autumn Mar 2023 #51

That AOC article was very late spring 2022, long before even the 2022 midterms, and I recall Celerity Mar 2023 #46

Manchin knows a couple of things we all know, too DFW Mar 2023 #29

He suffers from centrist disease and plans to run for Governor Emile Mar 2023 #31

I don't have a problem with that Dirty Socialist Mar 2023 #34
