Wherever you stand on this, it is not a good look. Makes me want to take a shower.
Maybe President Biden should go down and knock a few heads together before it gets any dirtier.

(11,300 posts)would seem to have legitimate reason to wish this person out - and a perfectly qualified candidate in line to replace her. To a lot of people this wouldn't seem a 'problem' so much as a corrective action. "Dems in disarray!"

(17,003 posts)Editors note: This story has been updated to correct the disposition of Whitmers Florida case. We regret the error.
Florida law allows judges to rule a felony adjudication withheld, meaning there is no admission of guilt on ones record, however, the charge remains on ones record.
So charged but not tried and obviously not convicted over 25 years ago for exactly what we dont know.
Common Dreams is a proudly left-leaning publication which Nevada really isnt. There are 617,473 registered Dems, 565,525 registered Repubs and 578,836 registered as non-partisan. Pretty much a 3-way split.

And just how much of the Nevada Democratic Party's "Resources" were spent on him to dig up dirt and spread it around?
I really, really, don't want a repeat of 2016.
