With Krysten jumping ship the only question is will Joe make it a cruise? For if Joe Manchin was to join Krysten Sinema’s role and become an independent they could control the agenda for at least the next 2 years. This power couple (not in the married sense) would truly determine which side would be able to pass their agenda or be the spoiler no side could ignore. They would be able to make sure the earmarks went to their states in a big way, One week they can make the Republicans win the next the Democrats would be pouring Champagne into their cups 1st and the largest glass. Furthermore, they could determine who gets investigated and whose investigation was ended. It will take two former Democrats to decide if power is in their hands Krysten is hand number # 1 will Joe be her handshake?
