RIP Carl Levin

[Jake from State Farm]

Michigan senator for years
Brother was my congressman

 

[I Should Coco]

Sorry to see this. He helped bring a lot of EPA cleanup help to the town where I worked/lived in the U.P. Always seemed to be more of a statesman than some of the reps/senators we have now.

R.I.P.

The era of Jack Danforth was the last of the statesmen.

 

[Starman]

One of the liberal lions from the days when bipartisanship was considered a great thing. Was always plastered by the GOP as a wild eyed radical because of being Jewish.

 

[garrow]

Longtime Dem stalwart. RIP.

Whenever you watched C-SPAN committees, he’d always be the guy that asked the questions that cut to the heart of the matter and seemed to make the most sense.
