Our best and brightest problem-solvers avoid politics, leaving it to the wealthy but relatively inept, who either deny that we have problems or muddle the solution.
Bad “metaphor”, Jeff. Whether that’s Manchin or McTurtle, neither one of them has ever “pitched” anything. Their specialty is pass interference, which is a different — and more aggressive — game than baseball.

Manchin is everything a mensch is not. (And Biden’s not much good with a pitch either).

Yeah. That’s McConnell’s idea of the “perfect pitch”. The one that never goes over the plate.

Next chance Moscow Mitch has he will again, as he has done it before, get rid of the filibuster to damage democracy to a point it may never recover.

We do need to remember the problem is not two Democrats in the Senate, it’s 50 Republicans in the Senate that are the real problem.
