1. Just gotta say that Ruben and Kate Gallego being in the same primary seems like it'd be awkward

[Celerity]

2. Did they have a bad divorce? That would make it even stranger.

3. I don't know that it was bad, just a strange situation

I've never heard of exes running for the same seat.

4. What about Raul Grijalva? He always impressed me as a good Democrat - can't he run?

Not from Arizona, so I can't speak to regional politics, but . . . .

7. he would be almost 83 at the end of his first term and is likely too far left to win, as well

I say that as a progressive, but a realistic one. AZ is not California.

5. I predict she'll switch parties soon and run as a Republican in '24.

11. She will be poison even over there.

She’s a one termer now.

6. She's about cooked herself in politics, and that's not good for us.

If she has no chance of being reelected, she has no incentive to do what her constituents and the party want of her. I don't like her at all, but I think it's a mistake to be too negative towards her. As things stand now, she could vote against legislation we need or switch parties just to spite us, and then where would we be? I really hope the Democrats have something on her that will keep her in the fold, because as things stand now, she's probably looking over at offers from the Turtle and is thinking, "why not?"

9. She'd better make sure she's on the up & up. No one will defend her from any criminal prosecution.

[BradAllison]

8. One reaps what they sow.

I doubt she cares though. She got her windfall.

[mcar]

10. She's not up til '24

We need to get Kelly reelected.
