Dudette. Took the place of Father.
Are you sure you're a professional, and if so, a professional what? The poster was referring to Daines as evidenced by the comment....
The dude gets paid to do one thing: vote.
And he's out when needed the most.
If it were Murkowski that the poster was referring to, why say that he/she would be out during the vote when it's clear that Murkowski will vote present.
The article mentions Murkowski's rationale for voting present, hence the comment by the poster you felt needed correcting.
