Establishment Dems will go after anyone seemingly progressive.

At the same time, this guy has all the makings of a Fetterman about him.

I still think he’s the better choice but I guess we’ll wait and see.

There are some differences, but yeah, there's plenty in his background to suggest possible scumbag. We won't know til he's in, but I do take a little heart in the fact that the positions he's advocating for actually work against him getting elected, which suggests authenticity.

I think Susan Collins' campaign is probably doing some of the heavy lifting on this one.
