I would rather the leadership be neutral. If a primary challenge exists, I don’t think money should be distributed until the general election, to whoever wins the primary.

Hogg is definitely right that incumbents in their 80’s are not going to move the party forward. Durbin did the right thing recently in announcing his retirement. We need to see the same from Schumer. Even if he doesn’t retire completely, stepping down from leadership is a must.
