She feels Atang is the most likely one out of the three to keep up the whole "trying to be a moderator between the Progressive and Moderate wings" that Carrie did in the role. But at the same time, having the Democratic Leader in both House being from NYC is bad enough, adding another is only worst.

It's kind of hard to vote for Mac if only becuase he hasn't been the most active player.

As for Crawford, he'd keep the CBC happy assuming the Leader and Whip are both old White dudes, he's also from the Rust Belt if I remembered correctly that he's representing the district with Louisville in it. But at the same time, Nez isn't the biggest fan of being the only Progressive in the leadership as it could quickly lead to her becoming the leadership's token Progressive as well as getting her concerns (and the Progressive caucus in general) getting overshadowed.

I mean it more as an alternative to Atang. Kind like, I can imagine the more left wing members of the CBC will vote for Atang and the more moderate ones will vote for Crawford, but if either gets eliminated they'd immediately endorse whichever one is still in the standing

My gut says he won't. Her record as California AG was too recently scrutinized, and she's not experienced enough. Biden wants to avoid controversy, and he's a believer in experience--he was a Senator for what, 30 years? Meanwhile, Kamala's been there for 3. Also his wife doesn't like her.

What's weird af about this RP is that, were it real, I would 100% be a Westra backer.

Spellman? Not sure why anyone would vote for him. I see him as a meaningless airbag of ambition and opportunism. He's basically the analogue to the anti-working class misanthrope conservative politician but on the left.

ANNOUNCEMENT


So i just found out my girlfriends parents were not wearing masks or social distancing recently right before my girlfriend visited them. On top of that starting yesterday and getting worse today my girlfriend is starting to show flu-like symptoms and is running a fever. As of yet I have no symptoms but we are going to self quarantine until my girlfriend can get a test result. I will keep you updated. As you can imagine I am a bit pre-occupied right now so likely I will not be on NS quite as much for a few days. If we have specific business please TG me so I don't miss anything.

Thank you

Murphy's policies are marginally better, but Westra would be a better POTUS.

I really hope he can win a Senate seat if the Pres thing doesn’t pan out.

He’d be like AOC, heck he’d probably come around to Medicare for all.

Quote of the Week: "A NEW STORY ON WRITING THREAD FOR HALLOWEEN!! MYSTERY MINE AVAILABLE NOW!"

RPs I do
- How do you do fellow kids? You want to see something violent? - Artemis: Deimos Trafficking League (Horror/Mature)
- Descend into the forgotten tourist traps of Florida on this transgressive RP! - The Community (Mature/Black Comedy/Slice-of-Life)

My overall account that I use for P2TM and even for international roleplaying! MNM is a mysterious and extremely dangerous dictatorship filled with supernatural oddities, demons, militarized soldiers everywhere, and a misanthropic nihilistic dictator who doesn't give a damn. It's basically if the SCP Foundation got mixed with 1984.
