I think she plays for both teams.

The question asserts itself: Is she better for the country than John McCain was?

Those figures are irrelevant when not cross referenced to the cost of living in each state.

Don’t bother: she’s a lesbian. You’re not her type.

She’s kind of hot in a cougar-ish sort of way.

Wrong. She has declared herself Bisexual.

She’s not great but she’s 100 times better than Snake and 1,000 times better than McStain.

I thought she listed herself as "bi-sexual".

That's a little Roman Emperorish, isn't it? I'm sure Democrat leaders have practiced this at home in front of the mirror.

I was talking to someone who I believe is making less than $15/hr. I was surprised when he emphatically said it was a bad idea. I asked why and he said, “Because I know a lot of people who are not worth $15/hr and they would simply be unemployed.” Wow.

Goodwill used to employ lots of people who probably couldn’t have worked anywhere else. Then the minimum wage went up to the point Goodwill couldn’t afford to pay them. They are now all unemployed. (At least not at Goodwill, and, likely not anywhere.)

Channeling the "late and not so great" Juan McCain with the thumbs down vote...

Bipolar?

Sinema rarely votes sanely on anything. Just like Manchin, she voted to convict Trump twice.

But she has the media saying she is a “moderate” which she isn’t. She gets a lot of breaks because she is easy on the eyes.

I think she took the seat that Jeff Flake vacated.

It reminds me of another story making the rounds, about a kid in Baltimore who only passed 3 classes in four years of high school. The mother is claiming that the school failed him, and while that might be partially true, the reality is that the parents and the individual have to bear the ultimate responsibility for the success they re to experience.

Progressive politicians are making these proposals because some people believe that it is the answer to their problem. And they will vote for the politicians who act like they have real solutions. But the reality is that when the minimum wage goes to $15.00 an hour, the new costs of things will mean that it will take $20.00 to live beyond a level of poverty.

Did you read the comments on that Twitter thread. They are all mad at her for not giving people the raise. That thousands of people are going to be suffering because of her vote. That they should primary her.

There was not one of those morons who thought about how many people will be fired if it went through. Automation, price changes and reduction of workers is what happens every single time.

How can they be that stupid?

They are that stupid because they are consumers of the propaganda press only.

Comments on twitter are great!

The downside is that there are little communists everywhere
