I'm not aware of a republican candidate, tho I guess there is one.

(130,974 posts)3. She's a real progressive and a fighter,

Chathamization
(1,638 posts)6. Edwards! She supports single-payer, is strongly opposed to Social Security cuts, has fought
to overturn Citizen's United, and is probably one of the strongest progressives in Congress (and a member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, unlike Van Hollen). She'll be one of the most progressive senators if she wins.
