A few weeks ago when I began calling the "iffy" Dems he was on my call list. He was off of it pretty damn quickly. He told us where he stood and held his ground! Now that is a Dem, unlike Manchin!

He is a liberal just like any senator on the west coast. He has spoken about immigration, gay rights and climate change.
