Should she have ran for KY-06 again against Barr?

Would she be a good Defense Secretary in a Biden administration?

I would probably feel bad for her had she put together a coherent ideology and stuck to it, but instead she has been all over the place in terms of her ideology (i.e. saying different things to different groups of people) that I still cannot figure out exactly what she really stands for. I know that she wouldn't have been favored in her current race under most (if not all) circumstances, but it's still better to run someone with a more coherent ideology than someone whose public statements are mostly influenced by political expediency.

No. Her team got Matt Jones fired when he was exploring a bid, which was almost certainly part of what convinced him not to run.

I feel alot better about MT since Bullock has lead in 4/5 polls against Daines and McConnell has done ads for Daines. Bullock is gonna defeat McConnell in MT than McGrath defeating McConnell in KY

Why would I feel sorry for one of the most successful grifters in the campaign finance world? She has the ability to pay her friends and family hundreds of thousands of dollars in salaries if she wants, as well as jet all across the country to “fundraise”

If I was retired and was represented in Congress by a lightning rod for controversy who has no chance at all of losing, I might do the same thing

AK, GA, IA, KS, KY, MT, SC and TX were always wave insurance and in this environment,  the Senate Dems can win a filibuster proof majority,  since AZ, CO, ME and NC are probable

I don't feel sorry for any politicians, much less empty opportunists raising millions of dollars.

Dems are gonna reform campaign finance laws so that donors dont get big tax breaks at the expense of working poor. McConnell has been a proponent of 1st amendment rights, that's why he wont pass campaign finance reform.  We must defeat Graham,  McConnell and Cornyn
