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?
