One more Senate seat falls into the Republican column. And likely one that Democrats will hate much more than they hated Manchin.

The bill cuts deeper than that. There's no definition of viability. It allows the treating doctor to determine viability, regardless of term. That's what I had the biggest issue with.

That was my biggest issue as well.

His Wall Street Journal declaration was perfect as to the divisiveness of the country, and the stubbornness of the parties.
The Senate is losing a good man. I didn’t always agree with him and I think the Dems just abused him, but he is a man of principle.

I just do not believe any doctor is risking his medical license by making up a bullshit definition of viability that does not comport with medical standards.

I do. And they will have the full support of many organizations and $ behind them.

Joe Mancin not running for reelection.
I hope that you can read his excellent article/reason that he wrote in the best newspaper in the Country. The Wall Street Journal:

Guessing Governor Jim Justice now becomes the favorite to win that Senate seat.

It’s very poorly worded, I think intentionally.

In spirit yes, but there are countless examples of Doctors engaging in for profit behavior that put their licenses at risk.
