(2,314 posts)the "us versus them" tribal mentality, i dislike fencesitters even more, doubly so if they are doing from a "what's in it for me," or "how can i benefit from this" perspective. it would be one thing if Senator Manchin was in the position of not knowing all of the facts and trying to educate himself, but he's not. Granted he's not my senator, I'm blessed that moRon Johnson, but he seriously needs to look at the big picture: his dithering and dawdling might just cost us the Senate and then NO ONE will be happy because no matter what President Biden and the Democrats propose, no matter how many Americans it would help, Seantor McConnell and his merry band of troglodytes will just shoot it down out of hand.
Senate Manchin really needs to shit or get off of the pot. How he cannot see that a lot of the policies and proposed spending will benefit his state is beyond me. It seems he's sacrificing any chance he might have of being re-elected for some filthy lucre now from whatever dark money is feeding him. Honestly, I'd rather vote for someone who looked out for my best interest and the interests of others over and over... which is why I have never voted Republican... go figure.
