re: #21 Love-Child of Cassandra and Sisyphus

Me, being the cynic that I am, don’t see it as good news.

The national GOP ran against King, because they saw him as a liability.

So they pushed Feenstra, someone who will make the same votes as King, but as someone else noted, Feenstra knows what to not say out loud.

Pretty much anyone the GOP nominates would vote the same as King - they’re the party of lockstep and monolithic voting since GOP uber alles is stamped on them.

I’d still rather have King sidelined by *his own party* since it still is a bit of a statement that he’s gone beyond some kind of pale. Or at least enough people have decided that he’s too much of an asshole to tolerate compared to someone else. Feenstra might well be Nazi-lite and as racist (but not openly saying it), but I view him as ultimately being no worse than King.
