Doesn't he already? :eyebrow: Yes, yes he does. The announcement included a shout-out to Marlowe.

Stansky's reputation poisons any idea associated with him, including Medicare for All.

Spicy is the Pub whip, amnesiacs who can not speak English tend not to be the best whips though

That is a rather surprisingly small net worth for Samara. Discounting other sources of income, his salary as a Representative alone would have taken in well over half a million dollars in post-tax income. Simply owning a paid-off home of average value in Massachusetts would give him twice his reported net worth, notwithstanding any other assets or savings.

No need. It is lower than what one would expect, but any number of ways to roleplay that gap could be made, from attempted investments going bust, to poor financial management, to taking out ill-advised loans or mortgages for home purchases, to simply expensive tastes, all of which are perfectly fine, and could add depth.

Mondale must have supersonic hearing, with her knowing about the ongoing conversation on the Senate floor.
