It depends how she evolves and the relationships she forges Sympthsical Apr 2025 #25

I'm not saying it's an impossibility (down the road), but I have less faith (perhaps) than you that the House Dem caucus Celerity Apr 2025 #33

I have a weird feeling both parties break Sympthsical Apr 2025 #34

No, she needs Schumer seat first, and YES she is the future krawhitham Apr 2025 #44
