In reply to the discussion: Why I'm voting for John Fetterman in PA's primary. [View all]Celerity
(43,248 posts)the extremely problematic, anti-Pelosi, Lieberman-led, RW billionaire-backed 'bi-partisan' Problem Solvers Caucus (No Labels is its parent org), and he had the 2nd highest Trump score in the 115th Congress for all Dems, voting with Trump almost 70% of the time.
Fetterman would be a very reliable vote for Biden. Lamb could quite possibly end up being not so reliable.
Imagine we end up basically swapping Warnock for Lamb (as the only two seats that flip parties), or we also lose one of either NV or NH or AZ yet also flip either WI or NC Blue), and still remain at 50/50 after the midterms.
There is no way that the Senate will be more reliable for Biden, and the Warnock for Lamb swap makes it at least somewhat likely it will be less reliable (if still at 50/50).
The ONLY 3 Dems in the House who voted to extend the Trump tax cuts were Lamb, Jackie Rosen, and Sinema (Rosen and Sinema were in the House then)
