The only conclusion one can draw is that the Democrats have concluded that it is good politics for them not to allow the Republicans to ‘get a victory’ or the president to ‘get a victory’ in the middle of a political season.

There’s voter fatigue with high gas prices, and high diesel prices in my part of the world.
