The 34 Percent Solution

Well, I suppose we all knew something was coming, the only detail was what? Krazy Kyrsten stamps her little foot and says, "Me, me, me!!!"

If it acts like a terrorist, talks like a terrorist, and walks like a terrorist... well, you know.

Being some 2,000 miles from Arizona, we don't get a lot of daily news from thereabouts, although mention is made that she isn't well regarded overall. A Nader Nutball in a previous life. She's learned from him, that's for sure.

So, what's the deal? Extortion, pure and simple. She's 26% approval among Dems (I saw 19% on some news show on the teeVee, but don't find a cite; neither number is good?), so she needs Inds to overcome any MAGAmoron in '24. So, what's the gag?

Since Arizona, as almost every other state, elects based on plurality, Krazy Kyrsten is more than willing to hand the seat to a MAGAmoron if she doesn't have a chance to win. There has been reporting that Dems are more than willing to toss her out through primary. So, by jumping ship, she can run as an Ind and split the non-MAGAmoron vote. Nice girl.

[update]
The title is, naturally, fanciful. Just almost. Turns out Utah Democrat Frank Moss in 1958 (38.7 percent) got close to the ignoble number.
