a stronger candidate would have won a primary, instead of losing a primary La Lioness Priyanka Feb 2017 #47

... and a deeper pool of candidates might have led to a stronger winner. Baconator Feb 2017 #54

Sure. Some invisible other person could have withstood fake news, attacks from the FBI La Lioness Priyanka Feb 2017 #56

We would not have confirmed anyone, not with a GOP Senate majority. Orsino Feb 2017 #64

that's possible, but a status quo is better than regressive policies that will take years if not La Lioness Priyanka Feb 2017 #65

Status quo actually sounds delicious right now. n/t Orsino Feb 2017 #69

indeed. La Lioness Priyanka Feb 2017 #71
