What if Swalwell just ‘suspends’ his campaign, leaving open the possibility of jumping back in in May—just to f—- with Pelosi and the party elite?

Hypothetical: What if Zombie Swalwell gets 15% and that’s enough to make a runoff vs Hilton. Does he stay on the ballot even though he’s ’dropped out’? https://t.co/FRn0GtDjPI

And of course the more powerfully Swalwell defends himself before dropping out, the more votes Zombie Swalwell will probably siphon from the Dem field… https://t.co/FRn0GtDjPI

Bouncing Swallwell doesn’t completely solve the Dems’ too-many-candidates problem if Zombie Swalwell still pulls down 9%. (Good grief, that more than I got.) Dem bigwigs better bounce some others if that’s what this is about. https://t.co/njtL4Jzjrj

Swalwell was elected & should get due process before being forced to give up seat. But the argument against him running for another office is about electability, not voiding popular choice. Whatever he did, it’s legitimately embarrassing & costs votes. Party allowed to intervene. https://t.co/FBfQSkXy6c

Alternative take: Dems don’t have to wait until Swalwell’s in the final runoff against a Republican and *then* has this scandal dumped on his head. Similar to party’s dilemma with Edwards in 2008. They’re allowed to head off the disaster scenario. https://t.co/VE6rnZxStJ
