seem to be well-credentialed, credible people. I voted for her enthusiastically but she has been a big disappointment; she spends little time in the district actually representing her constituents, and she has an unfortunate penchant for creating completely unnecessary controversies.

Yes, but coming from people who had previously endorsed BS carries more weight GeorgiaPeanut Apr 2020 #20

Let's just hope that Biden voters don't take Sanders at his word and not show up since R B Garr Apr 2020 #17

It just seems he remains in the race "unofficially" Hav Apr 2020 #21
