We had Mike Mansfield and Lee Metcalf. Jon Tester was terrific but Sheehy got big money from out of state.

The No Kings rally will still be held on the street in front of the Capitol.

I am tempted to get out my walker, put my portable oxygen in the basket and ask my son to take me. If it is cold like the first rally back the day after 45 was sworn in, I can't do it.
