She won’t win. Chuck is so out of touch.

We need leaders who WANT to run, have the fire in the belly to fight. Not have to be begged to run.

Jeez, this isn’t that hard!

Mills is a respected former Governor, and would be running against Susan "Faux Expression of Concern" Collins. I think she'd have a good shot, particularly in this political environment.

In Texas, a Senate Race Turns Brutal Before It’s Even Declared
Attorney General Ken Paxton is waging “legal war” against Beto O’Rourke, a possible Democratic rival, threatening jail and an investigation that could bankrupt his organization.

Beto can not win in Texas sorry but he can not.

It's a waste of money and resources for him to run. Is he great of course can he win no.

Paxton will jail him

For what? Have at it Pax. Show your constituents what a cry-baby-middle-school-tantrum looks like. Eat a 🍆

PP here. I meant Mills won’t win the Democratic primary. Voters want something different not rehashed 70-year-olds.

Wouldn’t that be something if a young female Democrat fighter pilot could pick up the seat Mitch is vacating. She’s literally his polar opposite.

Amy McGrath on Monday officially launched another Kentucky Senate bid, aiming to take the seat held by retiring Sen. Mitch McConnell.

McGrath, a retired fighter pilot, announced her candidacy on X, saying the Bluegrass state deserves a senator “battle-tested and ready to fight.”

God no! She was a horrible candidate. Schumer wants her to run because he thinks she’ll raise tons of money like previous years. She won’t! Voters are screaming WE WANT AUTHENTIC CANDIDATES WHO HAVE CONVICTIONS AND STAND BY THEM. She is so milquetoast. Ugh

I don’t agree. I think she’s a strong candidate who will appeal to many as the anti-Trump (and anti-Mitch.) Let the Republicans spend their precious money to defend Kentucky.
