    Primary the bastard. Party leaders need to get behind one name. But I am curious about his explanation for $500k in cash in his house….fell out of a truck, found in the rafters of his home, from the great train robbery….?

      Party leaders need to get behind one name.

      Party leaders get behind the incumbent. At least that’s their reasoning when they fuck over progressive challengers.

        Party leaders get behind the most procorporate and pro oligarchy candidate.

        Those are the only actual decision points.

      He was primaried in 2018 after his first corruption charges didn’t stick. He was backed by members of the party as the incumbent and raised nearly $4 million for his campaign. His opponent got over a third of the vote with a campaign that raised less than $10,000.
