    That would certainly be a bonus that he stumped for younger progressives, though he has a pretty full plate. There are not many as vocal as Wyden when it comes to consumer rights, privacy, repair laws etc….

    Is his age holding him back from also going for the throat in our democracy’s death throes? I dunno. It’s probably the most important subject to keep laser-focused on, but I don’t classify him in the same orbit as pelosi or Schumer, both of which had their time and neither of which I particularly care for.

    As far as representation goes, he stands among the better to best IMO, but yeah, I’m sure he could always improve, or elevate a suitable replacement.

    At least he isn’t Fetterman
