Sinema's Brave Step Makes Democrats' Odds Precisely Same
Sinema's bold 'independence': now free to vote as she always did.
Senator Kyrsten Sinema has, with characteristic flair, boldly declared her political liberation, transitioning from a nominal Democratic Party affiliation to the rugged individualism of ‘independent’ status. This seismic shift, celebrated by precisely no one who understands basic arithmetic, reportedly maintains her voting alignment with her former colleagues in the United States Senate. It's a move of such breathtaking audacity that it redefines the very concept of "changing nothing."
Observers across Arizona are no doubt reeling from the profound implications of a senator choosing a new label while continuing to vote precisely as before. One can only imagine the arduous soul-searching involved in such a transformative act of administrative paperwork. Truly, the courage to rebrand without re-evaluating is a rare commodity in Washington, a testament to her unique political brand. The reverberations of this non-event are expected to last until the next news cycle, or perhaps until someone actually changes their mind about something.
