Boyle Bows Out of Fetterman Challenge

Pennsylvania Democrat Rep. Brendan Boyle won reelection Tuesday in his Philadelphia-area district with about 80.7 percent of the vote, per Just the News. On Wednesday he posted on Facebook that he won't challenge Sen. John Fetterman's seat in 2028. He says he can do more good as chairman of the House Budget Committee than as a freshman senator. Right now he's the ranking member while Republicans hold the House, but he'll take the gavel once Democrats have won control, whenever that turns out to be. A man who wins by that kind of margin and still picks the checkbook over the Senate is either real humble or has been in Washington too long to remember what a budget is for. I've got a neighbor who swears he'll fix my fence after the next rain. Both of us are still waiting on the rain.
