What Will Patty Murray Do?

[DonViejo]

Sen. Patty Murray’s (D-WA) two decades in office “have been marked by her knack for turning her vanilla-ness into an asset to pass big bills and accrue power. Lawmakers in both parties say she has a high trustworthiness quotient… Now, in a measure of Murray’s prominence and influence, she’s managed to roil the Senate Democratic Caucus just by remaining silent about her ambitions,” Politico reports.

“Murray refused to rule out the possibility of running against Democratic Whip Dick Durbin, currently No. 2 in her party’s Senate leadership, who’s been busy lining up support to keep his job.”

2. She's awesome.

And she has her staff watching for every opportunity to connect with constituents.

Our nonprofit obtained a USDA loan, and we learned about it because one of her staffers called us to set up a meeting to get to know us and our community.

Nothing from Cantwell.

I would doorbell for her were she to run for president.

3. Kind of unusual to see the words ambition

and Murray used in the same sentence.
