Hellofa DodgeMy advice, as always….

Semina is doing what is best for Arizona. She has more power today than she had yesterday.What an ingrate. Runs as a Dem, with Dem support, and now she says she wants to register as an “Independent.” She better not screw up the Dems’ 51-49 position in the Senate…
I don’t think it’s best for Arizona to have a senator without major party backing. I think she’s going “independent” because she knows she would be primaried as a Dem. She is doing this to serve her own interests.Semina is doing what is best for Arizona. She has more power today than she had yesterday.
Politically it's not the smart thing to do...you end up with less in your war chest if you go as an independent.
And she did it when her turn in the barrel is coming up. I get that you don't want her to leave the party. But tell me where I'm wrong.
Perfectly valid opinions.I don’t think it’s best for Arizona to have a senator without major party backing. I think she’s going “independent” because she knows she would be primaried as a Dem. She is doing this to serve her own interests.
I don’t think she could raise more money as a Dem and spend it if she ran as an indie. Even if she could given the campaign finance laws, that would basically be fraud. Not a good look when running for Senate.Perfectly valid opinions.
But lets look at what happened.
The primary is at least 16 months away. I don't know if she's raising money but she probably is. Wouldn't it have been easier to go on for 8 months or so and raise the money as a Democrat then come up with some benign reason to switch to independent with a few hundred million in the war chest?
I admire how she changed prior to 2024 instead of just doing the cut and run after the election--where do you think Dr. Oz slept last night...in New Jersey I'm sure; not Pennsylvania.
There are already 2.Now if we could just get some independents on the left.
OMG, a dem politician or any politician working for their own self interestI don’t think she could raise more money as a Dem and spend it if she ran as an indie. Even if she could given the campaign finance laws, that would basically be fraud. Not a good look when running for Senate.
If she planned to do a cut and run after the election she would still have to go through being primaried.
We’re speculating as to her motives, of course, but I think she’s being driven by her own self-interests. You better take that halo off her head!

Can you stop with the random tangential posts and focus on topics?OMG, a dem politician or any politician working for their own self interest
here's another one doing that
A Democratic congresswoman just joined the long list of lawmakers who've violated a federal conflict-of-interest law (msn.com)
Can You do the same instead of cryingCan you stop with the random tangential posts and focus on topics?
Yikes.
Sinema has told news outlets that she’s not going to caucus with the GOP but that she may not caucus with Democrats. She told Politico that she will not attend the weekly Democrat caucus meetings.Bugsy. This what happens when you're too lazy to read beyond a headline. Schumer is letting sinema keep her committee asignments, and she continues to caucus with the democrats. A s a green party member, shes moving left, not towards the center.
Take the rest of the day off and devote it to reading, not ranting
Actually, this is what my linked article says about that:Bugsy. This what happens when you're too lazy to read beyond a headline.

but you condemn Cheney for having sanity and integrity. Pretty selective of you.Score one for Sanity and Integrity... something that is lacking all together in Washington (and especially your party).
Thom Hartmann claims part of her motivation stems from dodging a primary opponent in 2024. As an "Independent" she will turn the November election into a three way race with Kari Lake as the likely victor. Sinema then ride$ off into the $unset of a K-Street lobbying firm.What an ingrate. Runs as a Dem, with Dem support, and now she says she wants to register as an “Independent.” She better not screw up the Dems’ 51-49 position in the Senate…
I don't deny that she's moving to keep her job.I don’t think she could raise more money as a Dem and spend it if she ran as an indie. Even if she could given the campaign finance laws, that would basically be fraud. Not a good look when running for Senate.
