Since 2022 I've thought Mark Kelly would be the legit best choice for Democrats. He won by nearly 5 points in a crucial swing state and he's a vet and astronaut. As I've.said he and Josh Shapiro could form a party-saving team in 2028 that has swing state appeal.
Sinema looks like a crazy cat lady and there are ample sound bytes and videos of her saying things to turn off both sides and Manchin is a very specialized WV coal industry candidate. I don't see either having the national appeal of two employed and popular Democrats.
