"SNIP.....

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) told CNN he’ll soon make a statement on where he sees things headed with President Biden’s agenda.

Said Manchin: “I think I will clear up a lot of things sometime today. I think there needs to be clarity on where everybody stands.”

.....SNIP"

Ya think??

Thus far, Manchin has made a series of confusing, contradictory statements. I await hearing how he defines clarity.

Oy!

We needed clarity months ago, and we already know where every other democrat but him and Sinema stand. Things could have gotten started by now if not for the delays caused by those two.

I've been advised that he's a good "loyal" Democrat though, so I'm sure he'll finally get behind Biden and do the right thing for us.
