Anyway, I posted this because multiple rightoids tried to argue with me and claim I was wrong and Sinema was totally fine and popular among Arizona dems.
I claimed Sinema was in a lot of danger, because she isn;t Joe Manchin. The DNC is gaining ground in arizona and can't ignore the left-wing activist bloc or they risk sinking turnout in the state.
Surprise surprise, this is the exact reasoning the state party is now rejecting Sinema:
But she faces political dynamics unlike the other Senate moderate thwarting Democratic ambitions, Joe Manchin of West Virginia. Representing a state that former President Donald Trump carried by nearly 39 percentage points in 2020, Manchin is unlikely to face a progressive challenger who would gain traction.
In Arizona, however, Democrats are ascendant. Joe Biden was the first Democratic presidential candidate to carry the state since 1996, and the party is eager to build on that success. That makes it harder for a Democrat to simply ignore the left here, particularly in a primary election.

People's preferences for presidential tickets make me so fricking mad. I had a close friend express support for some goober (thank god I don't remember who it was) who was in the media very briefly for flinging a lot of hot shit at Trump circa 2018 and my friend was like "I think this guy could have a shot at president". I flipped out, because I'm a giant butthole, and asked him like what fricking policy does this guy support that you like? What do you know about his politics? Why do you want to elect him as your leader? And it was like I was speaking a foreign language because the answer to all my questions was clearly "well he said bad stuff about trump and that gives me a boner". I'm still friends with that guy but I doubt I have any respect for him now.
