Wasn't Ken Martin selected a short while ago? How often are they elected? 33taw Wednesday #5

I don't know... Happy Hoosier Wednesday #8

This message was self-deleted by its author 33taw Wednesday #59

In my view, Martin is an utter failure. Lonestarblue Wednesday #36

Yep, such an utter failure that Democrats have flipped around 30 seats through special Wiz Imp Wednesday #37

I'm not sure that has anything to do with Martin. YodaMom2 Wednesday #42

Isn't that convenient. He gets no credit for winning but would get trashed for losing. Wiz Imp Wednesday #50

Perhaps you might want to re-read what I wrote. YodaMom2 Wednesday #57

Where did I say you trashed him? The poster I originally responded to absolutely Wiz Imp Wednesday #63

You actually replied to my comment, so I assumed you were speaking to me. YodaMom2 Wednesday #65

I don't have an opinion on the job he has done - we have flipped a lot of seats. My question is how often does the DNC 33taw Wednesday #60

AG when we get the White House back. Borchkins Wednesday #6

is she giving up her seat in the House? yellow dahlia Wednesday #7

I could be wrong, but... Happy Hoosier Wednesday #10

Oh right. I think I heard something like that. I forgot. Thanks. yellow dahlia Wednesday #11

The primary was yesterday. Too late to run for a Congressional seat in 2026. Wiz Imp Wednesday #38

Thanks. A loss to the House. yellow dahlia Wednesday #62

Correct - Texas GOP gerrymandered both her TBF Wednesday #14

I was thinking the same thing PatSeg Wednesday #34

Not sure about that Renew Deal Wednesday #9

OMG, that's perfect! intheflow Wednesday #12

Jeffries is not the DNC chair, he's the House minority leader. Ocelot II Wednesday #16

Absolutely Not!!!! Sunnyskies801 Wednesday #13

Sounded like a good idea to me. mysteryowl Wednesday #33

I know its well intentioned. Sunnyskies801 Wednesday #43

The Democratic party ran Kamala Harris for America's President. mysteryowl Wednesday #49

Please tell us what you want dems to do for black women? Keepthesoulalive Wednesday #61

It would be blatant pandering JustAnotherGen Wednesday #46

No. I like her but she's too combative for that position. Ocelot II Wednesday #15

She will likely not be in Congress next year. Happy Hoosier Wednesday #25

But fighting loudly isn't the DNC's job. Fundraising and organizing is its job. Ocelot II Wednesday #27

Likely? Try definitely. Wiz Imp Wednesday #39

I like that idea angrychair Wednesday #17

the party chair role is mostly background. themaguffin Wednesday #18

Fundraising and organizing, not policy. Ocelot II Wednesday #20

Absolutely! awesomerwb1 Wednesday #19

She'd be bad at it. DNC's job is organizing and fundraising, not policy. Ocelot II Wednesday #21

That's your opinion awesomerwb1 Wednesday #24

DNC is a career killer. She should run for President. WSHazel Wednesday #22

Can we at least see her win a state race first before that? themaguffin Wednesday #23

Run as an issue candidate WSHazel Wednesday #30

If you want to her to run as an "issue" candidate as a path to an alternative role, then lead with that. themaguffin Wednesday #32

No chance as President I think. Happy Hoosier Wednesday #26

She doesn't need to get the nomination WSHazel Wednesday #31

No thanks EdmondDantes_ Wednesday #28

Thats... who has the job now. quakerboy Wednesday #58

Yessss!!! FakeNoose Wednesday #35

She will remain in Congress through the end of 2026. Wiz Imp Wednesday #40

It is not Jasmine Crockett's job to do outreach to Black women for Democrats. Quiet Em Wednesday #41

Coud not agree more JustAnotherGen Wednesday #45

That will never happen JustAnotherGen Wednesday #44
