I desperately hope the democrats run someone moderate like Shapiro or hochul and not pick Moore or newsom who throw their own state under the bus to score national political points.
Moore is actually fairly moderate. I like his tough on crime approach. I also like his commonsense approach to helping people with a hand up.
The energy issue is a crisis, but it’s one that he inherited rather than created. And it’s a tough one to address given the stakeholders and aging infrastructure.
Re: gerrymandering - While I’m generally not a fan, as a lifelong Democrat, I’m sick of the party always taking the high road and playing by the rules…especially now when the President and the Republicans have set the world on fire, openly break the law, and have thrown ethics and the constitution out the window. Unless you want more of what the Republicans are offering, pinch your nose and get on board with the milquetoast gerrymandering that pales in comparison with literally everything the R’s have done.
PS - I liked a lot of what Hogan did during his first term, but he’s proven himself to be a thin-skinned Republican who is struggling with his irrelevance. He hasn’t demonstrated any interest in helping us overcome this divisive climate. No clue why anyone cares what he thinks.
