I want Andrew Cumo to move to Florida.

Didn't expect someone to really vote for him. Same with Colbert.

than Cuomo.

That’s all I’ll say.

there is not more support for Al Franken.

but I voted for AOC in the poll

and doesn't live in New York.

But I would want Patty to replace Chuck as Leader if Chuck retires.

To replace Chuck as Senator? Probably AOC or Tish James off the top of my head.

I revised the headline to make it clearer.

Murray is the most senior Dem senator.

I like her right where she is.

Dig him up if you have to. He ruled the Senate and took no prisoners.

they're giving Trump to keep him animated. LOL

Not to mention, the parties were not as polarized. There were very conservative Democrats and very liberal Republicans in the mix of each party. ( Look up the Senate vote on the civil rights act.)

Not disparaging LBJ, who did more on progressive issues than any President since FDR, but the Congress is totally different today vs then.

than anyone could have predicted.

He lives in Manhattan and does a podcast. I was hoping he would endorse Mamdani or at least have him on the pod. But sadly he didn't.

Sen. Kristen Gillibrand to deal with...

Besides, it's not my state.

That would be ideal for a POTUS run IMHO, when the country is (hopefully) more progressive and more open to a female POTUS.

It is clear that the House leadership (and also a shedload of our giant donors) plus a substantial amount of moderate, centrist and conservative House Dems will try their best to block her from becoming a top 2 or 3 position Dem House leader (especially Speaker) and also prevent her from becoming a Committee Chair when he take back the House.

Look what happened with her simply trying to become the ranking member on Oversight. Pelosi (I was extremely unhappy with her over this) and then also the centrists/conservative Dem House caucuses (the New Democrat Coalition, the Problem Solvers, and the Blue Dogs) put paid to that bid, and to make it especially galling, they bigfooted AOC in favour of a terminally ill 75yo (Gerry Connolly) who was clearly not up to the job and, of course, died a few months after he got the position.

The US Senate is by far the best main route for her to move up IMHO, then, IF she feels like she can win the POTUS nomination (as the mood of the nation and our Party is ready for her) at that point she can go for it.

Obviously a wild card would be the VP slot offered in 2028 (unlikely ATM) or 2032.

Time will tell.

Compassionate leader, no matter the job.

She has a better chance of winning a statewide election than any of the names on the list.

if she would end up being my personal choice but I think she needs to go for it.

I think she will be about about 40 years old when she gets in the Senate if she wins in 2028. Winning statewide would also be important to show she can win over a wider and more diverse group of voters if she has interest in running for President ine day.

He's in his early 30's. He's smart, funny, has a lot of charisma.

I hope he wins

seat in Congress.

Whoever voters vote for?

I can’t vote in New York.
