if she doesn't finish out her term. After 160 days that character will be entrenched. It wouldn't surprise me if Baker appointed HIMSELF.

THAT is why E Warren is a non-starter.

I am amazed that people write articles when they plainly don't know a thing about state politics.

This is not worth reading because it's full of premises that are bone-headed.
