Did anybody see Sen Bennet on Morning Joe today?

Pretty impressive I thought.
At the end of the interview, Bennet said he is currently feeling “inclined” to run.
Didn’t say when a decision will come.

Joe loves him which concerns me a little.
Here’s his op ed pushing Bennet from February.

It would be nice if Republicans like Joe found someone on their side to run instead Autumn Mar 2019 #2
I'm sure Joe would love to see Kasich or Jeb primary Trump. Funtatlaguy Mar 2019 #5
Is it the "Democrat" they "want" for president Andy823 Mar 2019 #6
That's part of it I think. Plus they want someone who is willing to vote with them on some issues. Autumn Mar 2019 #8

That's my opinion also. I don't care who they like. It all boils down to the fact I don't like Autumn Mar 2019 #15

Was very impressed. Then had a few Phone calls, all were impressed.

I have seen Michael many times before. He is articulate, knows his facts, talks about the trials of his Constituents.

I would vote for him in a heart beat!

Or the ones they want to "run" because they think they will lose? I don't trust Joe, or any other republican now claiming to be anti trump. They may not like trump but they are still republicans who want republicans running things, from the local level up to the top.

We should just ignore what the Republicans say. In chess, you always make your best move, whether opponent thinks it a good idea or not.
