29. Schumer is meddling with the Democratic process of a primary. It's wrong.
Edited on Thu Aug-11-05 03:14 PM by shance
Is he a fortune teller on his off hours? How does he "know" who could win? I guess he could if he's intentionally blocking other candidates.

I have to ask who is Chuck Schumer to assume he can circumvent Pennsylvanians, not to mention Democracy by essentially saying Pennsylvanians are not capable of picking their own candidate?

If I was a Pennsylvanian, I would not be too pleased with such audacity.

Im sure Mr. Schumer would not feel so righteous if it was HIS candidacy that was being blocked by Senate leaders who thought he couldn't win and/or wanted to grant the position to someone else, who just 'happens' to be staunchly pro-life.

Schumer knows it's wrong, and yet he will try and make excuses until constituents and citizens oppose such meddling.

Apparently there are those in this party who are overindulging in their power and privilege as well.

Very disappointing to say the least.
