I do not believe that no labels is sincere because (1) they cannot win but are telling us they can, (2) if they were sincere they would have ran an actual no labels person or persons for senate/congress to prove they could actually win anywhere with a no labels ticket and (3) if they care about choices shouldn’t they have a primary not a backroom deal?
I have a more basic question about no labels: let’s say in this fantasyland that no labels wins (not going to happen). What happens on day 1? They have no control over either party. Can’t whip votes. Nobody in congress’s political career is dependent on the president so why take political risks. Realistically doesn’t it mean that our politics get worse? Like nothing gets done?
