I am curious of why Phillips was called to "walk" McC to the throne

[question everything]

I can see Emmer, he is now a biggie there but why Phillips?

1. No idea, but did you know his grandmother was "Dear Abby"?

[question everything]

2. Yes, of course. These are the details that media like to point out.

Not by blood, though. His biological father was killed in Vietnam when he was a baby and his mother married into the family.

3. Who is McC?

4. Kevin McCarthy

or that's how I read it.

[question everything]

5. Correct. Thanks

[question everything]

6. Ok, he is now in a leadership role

U.S. Rep. Dean Phillips is now co-chair of the House Democratic Policy and Communications Committee.

And I think those in leadership roles of both parties were given the "honor."

7. I didn't (couldn't bare) to watch it.

Dean was an interesting boy when he was younger. His mum, DeeDee was fantastic. He seems quite a bot more conservative than she was. Mort took me to lunch once. That was weird.
