Ed Markey crushed Kennedy in the primary despite Kennedy's support by Pelosi and the DNC. Hurray!
I hope Pelosi endorses herself.
I find it very telling that when a Progressive primaries a corporate democrat, they say it is divisive and hurts the party. But when a corporatists primaries a progressive incumbent who has been a representative in the party for decades, it is "bold" and "inspiring". And when he lost, they described it as "Joe Kennedy III has freed his family from a political burden it has struggled to escape." What a load of shit. The headline should read- progressives are in the ascendancy to the point that they are toppling political dynasties into the dust.
How does it not hurt the party if the Speaker herself endorses a primary challenger? The hypocrisy and double standard are boldly on display in the establishment.
I wonder if Nancy endorsed the Squads primary democratic challengers..
I wouldn't be surprised but I haven't heard that she did.
I really, really, really hope she loses. She has got to go.
First time a Kennedy lost an election in Mass. I think Mr. Kennedy was in a little to much of a hurry to get into the Senate.
