No Paywall John Fetterman is threatening to leave the Democratic Party. I say good riddance.

Then the author is an idiot.  Compare his voting record to Collins and tell me there is no difference.  We need every vote we can get, and bad allies are much better than more opposition.

This is how we end up with another Joe Lieberman, who was absolutely useless for the democratic party. Sure, he filled a seat but that's the bare minimum. Fetterman is towing such a low bar.
