David Nir: Booker's filibuster and Gallego's hold on VA noms good signs Sen Dems are becoming more obstructionist

With Cory Booker's filibuster and Ruben Gallego's hold on VA nominees, are Senate Democrats moving toward a more obstructionist posture? They should! These are good signs.

In fact, I just got done writing to his office. Coming off the disaster of Kyrsten Sinema, I think Arizonans (and Dems nationally) were beginning to sweat Gallego. (Yesterday he was in the news again for fundraising and vacationing).

I really do believe he is a good guy. But I've been fooled before.

How does that work? Can that be done on others, like the SS nominee?
