Here is a very interesting piece from Politico about West Virginia’s conservative Democratic Senator Joe Manchin. He looks at the folks that I look at, the ones who may be conservative or liberal, but who are (relatively) honest and pragmatic. As I have said here before, I would like to see a bipartisan group send up a solid centrist independent ticket in 2020 and break up both parties. A race nobody could call and folks would just have to get out and vote. Maybe even a moderate splinter from each of the parties and a four-way race.
With Jones arriving in the Senate, Manchin has new dreams of a middle-of-the-road nucleus, along with fellow centrist Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (D-N.D.), and from the Republican side, Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), retiring Sens. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) and Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.). Add in “that independent free spirit” Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), Manchin said, and he thinks they might be able to reshape what happens.

Compared to Europe and most of the world, there is no left party in the US. America already has a center party, its the dems.

I guess when we say center or right or left, what we’re really talking about is how many bones we throw to the poor versus how many steaks we throw to the rich.
