Totally agree. Raja has been flooding the airwaves with slick commercials. Stratton has been on the ground strategizing with JB on how to deal with Midway Blitz. She gets it on a granular level.
As for the other stuff —it’s our job as voters to put pressure on her where needed after she’s elected.
The way some centrist and even progressive Dems have responded to Trump, you'd forgive a casual observer for thinking he was more popular than Obama and Biden -- who Republicans repudiated from day one and refused to work with. Noah has addressed why that discrepancy exists -- Trump overwhelmingly won the white vote, even in defeat in 2020. That does have some political implications given the Senate and Electoral College structural imbalance but it doesn't excuse rolling over and playing dead.

esp in IL! where the chances of Rs winning the senate seat this cycle are about 0.
We need to get money out of our election. Citizens United was a disaster, is a disaster, for democracy.
Nicely explained.
Sitting in Vermont we had no idea, yet. (Getting electricity soon....)
So, would Stratton be another AIPAC recipient, like Crockett in Texas?
