    Jayapal I think has the chops to make a play for Speaker to signal a meaningful change in the party. Plus it maintains the Speakership as a person of color which is Jeffries biggest argument.

    Also, Cory Booker is not it. He would be the Jeffries to Chuck.

      Jayapal is a great suggestion! Thank you so much for mentioning her.

      And yeah, that seems to be the consensus on Cory Booker. More effective at playing the political game than he is at actually delivering for constituents. Sad.
