It was worrisome when WALNUTS! seemed to be deferring the decision to AZ goobernor Steve Doug Ducey. This should give some other waverers—and even GOPer senators who vote int the public interest, if they still exist—some room to change their votes and resist McConnell's blandishments, whatever those may be.

Guess phone banking into Arizona worked. Thanks, Grand Canyon State voters who called Walnuts!

I learned a new stoopid nickname for Obama among McCain's tweet's naysaying commenters:

"Scumbamacare."

To borrow from Bulgakov: attempted snarky slurs like that achieve resounding levels of 'second degree freshness'~

Donor class: |NOT HAPPY!| And not just because they had homophobic chicken parts for lunch.

As more than 40 subdued Republican senators lunched on Chick-fil-A at a closed-door session last week, Senator Cory Gardner of Colorado painted a dire picture for his colleagues. Campaign fund-raising was drying up, he said, because of the widespread disappointment among donors over the inability of the Republican Senate to repeal the Affordable Care Act or do much of anything else.

Seems kind of optimistic tbh
