Enema will run again. IMO her only door to staying viable in politics was to cozy to R and get appointed to something in the R realm. Now that the Rs are being badly beaten all over the country (YEAH!!!!) she's got no where to go.

Last I checked Gallego had 70% of the vote. He can do it in 2024.

Are coming from people who have shit on her for two years. She has 10% popularity in AZ - yet her primary challenger wants her campaigning for Dems?
It’s just a cheap grab for clout against an east target.

Seems like she’s done her share of shitting all over Joe Biden’s agenda.

Behind the scenes type things and making donations. If you know of any ways at all that she helped let us know. When I lived in AZ I canvassed for her, donated and of course voted for her and was excited when she won. I have a friend who has known her for a long time. She is an easy target because she deserves the shots for betraying those who supported her. Based on your many misspellings and many posts on the subject I have a feeling you get emotional about this. There are good, solid reasons why she is unpopular and taking potshots at real Democrats like Gallegos is the real cheapshot here.

for helping...People like her do not understand sarcasm...I always say, don't allow people to interpret what you say, speak very clear, make sure there is zero room for interpretation. Stupid narcissistic people will interpret things in their favour..."The difference between Genius and Stupid is that Genius has its limitations."

We may not like what she does, but there's no reason to think she's not smart.

I don't know if she actually reads/writes her tweets (many officials have staff who do that), but I'm sure she knows what Gallego thinks of her.

We have 52 senators so that with VP Harris a couple of our senators have their fangs pulled.

One can dream, right?

Say, at 10:00 A.M. sharp.
As the incumbent Senator, Sinema should go first, and list, in detail, all of her accomplishments while in the Senate.
At 10:01, her first challenger will speak.

She's almost universally despised by most Democrats in AZ.
