DL Open Thread Tuesday October 5th 2021

Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.), a close Biden ally, said McConnell’s position “has to stick in the president’s craw. This is something that’s been routinely done. There’s been bipartisan cooperation about working together to raise the debt ceiling, dozens and dozens of times.”

Other than Biden, has anyone come up smaller than Coons over the past month?

 McConnell crashing the economy and establishing himself as Acting President seems like a good time to ask, where is the Super Secret Bipartisan Caucus that was supposed to rise up when Coons gave the signal?     Where indeed.   Might as well ask, where is Coons’ shame?   Where is Coons’ self-respect to go around still lamenting McConnell’s lack of bipartisan spirit.  I mean, really Chris.  C’mon.

    I’m coming around to believing that Coons’ positioning as “a close Biden ally” means he lives a mile closer to Joe than Carper does.

      There’s a growing sense among some D’s that Lisa will not defer if Carper sends out signals that he plans to run for reelection.

      Although she may not be the be-all/end-all, I see her as a huge upgrade over Carper, and I’d support her.

      Not to mention, there’d be an open congressional seat. Uh, Sarah McBride, anyone?
