I just read an article about the rift between Fetterman and Shapiro, and the potential impact on the PA Democratic Party. That might be an interesting topic you could explore one day.

I don't know that there will ever be an impact on the party. Here's my thinking -- Fetterman is going to stay in the Senate, and he has no shot at higher office. He can be petulant about his appearances with Shapiro, but Shapiro will never acknowledge any problems. Shapiro will run for a second term as Governor, and very likely win. He will term out in January of 2031. He will then begin running for the 2032 open presidential primary. Fetterman won't speak out against him, no matter how much of a grudge he carries from the Parole Board imbroglio.

So I don't see an impact on the party -- what do see as impacts?

Nice memories. Politics isn't all bad.
