If you’re looking for perfect people to run for office you’re going to be waiting a long goddamn time. Personally, I’d rather somebody who’s a little bit tarnished and is publicly regretful of their past mistakes then someone who pretends to be the perfect person.
Susan Collins was like that. She pretended to be perfect. She pretended that she was going to work with both sides and then immediately fucked over the left. Kyrsten Sinema, she tried to convince everyone she was the perfect candidate and as soon as she got in office she switched sides and became basically Republican.
So yeah I’ll take somebody with a little tarnish and life lessons that taught them up how fucked up the other side actually is.
Unfortunately I am stuck here in Illinois, having had Dick Durbin as our senator for fucking decades. He’s only now being replaced because he’s voluntarily stepping down.
