I vote Joni Ernst because she is by far the likeliest to produce a speech on the Senate floor that unintentionally becomes a hit viral video

Because she will talk about making someone or something "squeal like a pig"?

I'm hoping she will literally threaten to castrate Harry Reid

lol Peters


If I had to pick a 2nd, Capito I suppose. 3rd would be Daines, because I literally can't name a single good or bad thing about Steve Daines.

It's quite hard to pick between Cotton, Sasse, and Gardner...

Why Capito? She's the most moderate of the freshman class of R's?

Yeah. Her, Daines, and Sasse are the only ones I can tolerate. Wait and see about Sullivan, Cassidy, and maybe Lankford too.

The rest represent everything I hate about the GOP.

Gary Peters is the obvious choice, but if I had to choose one of the Pubbies, Ben Sasse. Sasse in the past has been a reactionary fighter against Mitch McConnell, he's well-educated, young, has taken some moderate stances on foreign policy and immigration, and he surprisingly has a past, pro-Obamacare history with an old firm. It's annoying though that he opposes raising the minimum wage that Nebraska just agreed to do by a huge margin.

All the others are outright terrible, but Capito and Cotton I guess would be worthwhile mentions. Capito has an okay stance on abortion while Cotton knocked out the Republican Senator with a "D" in front of his name.

Shelley Moore Capito, followed by Cory Gardner.

This.  Somewhat surprised WV backed her so heavily (I know she's been in the House for a while, but still).  I really like her.
