Romney's communications director.
Yeah I get that. But we don't need to hear this person talk.
Her job is literally to talk and clarify a Senator's opinions and positions.
:haha:
Do you guys think it's particularly helpful to have people like this flooding twitter with messaging the second something like this happens?

Yeah, if you're going to be mad at someone, be mad at the original guy who floated the rumor.

There's still a three week window between the new Congress and Inauguration Day, so Alexander's GOP replacement could easily wreck that.

Whenever they do it, I hope they announce the nomination in the memory of Merrick Garland.

The red team immediately said they wouldn’t wait.

I do pretty much agree with the tweet Green Habit posted above. Dems, if they win, should add 2 justices if they can.

I think anyone who ascends to that level of power is a borderline sociopath who isn't going to get the same satisfaction out of playing golf and being really rich like a more normal person would aspire to do. More times than not, they will cling to power until their last breath.
