Julia Letlow is remarkably unimpressive but she’s an improvement over Cassidy.

So we're going to set her up for a 30-year career in the Senate?

This.

But there are also other, preferable options over Letlow and Cassidy.

Also curious if Letlow could GOTV in a statewide race against any formidable opponent, party notwithstanding.

You don't have to. Vote her out after 2 terms (12 years) or 3 terms (18 years), regardless if she's done awesome.

Congress will never pass term limits upon themselves, because the vast majority of them are selfish-arse leeches. So unfortunately the voters have to do it, though they very rarely do.

Fleming would be a much better candidate. He would have Trumps support 100% because Fleming worked closely with Trump for the four years trump was Pres.

Fleming would be 75 years old if elected.

Term limits is settled law. SCOTUS has ruled on the issue. We have term limits now. They’re called elections.

Ouch. Give me Miguez, Letlow or Graves over him, then.

Except idiot voters don't utilize their power to do such. Plus, once a public official in the national Executive, Legislative, or Judicial branch hits 80 years old, I think they should have to immediately clean out their office and go home.

I know Trump wants to stick it in Cassidy’s arse for voting to impeach him but not with Letlow.

They should be going after Miguez not Letlow.

Fine by me. She can join Kennedy and replace Cassidy in getting absolutely nothing done .

I like Julia. She's a good person. I don't think she is who we need in the Senate. She's just a yes woman.


Bingo.

Really don't have great choices, Cassidy isn't a strong Trump voter. We can't rely on him if he wins reelection. He might vote no on a Supreme Court judge. He might vote yes to oust Trump again. Anybody is better than him.

However, why is Rep. Letlow a "Hell No" for you?


I did not post this. But I don't like appointed Representative. Her Husband died. Why does that make her the Representative in Monroe district. "Cause she so nice." I have heard that more than once. She is not a fighter she is an order taker from the people who placed her there.
