Days after Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) took the unprecedented step of calling on Israelis to depose their prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, several of his Democratic colleagues praised the move, including Brian Schatz (Hawaii), Ron Wyden (Ore.), and Patty Murray (Wash.).

Others, however, are staying mum, and they just happen to include virtually all of the Democrats running in swing states. Nor did any of them respond to requests for comment from the Washington Free Beacon regarding whether they share Schumer's view. They include Wisconsin's Tammy Baldwin, Pennsylvania's Bob Casey, Montana's Jon Tester, and Ohio's Sherrod Brown. Michigan Rep. Elissa Slotkin—who is running to replace the state's outgoing senator, Debbie Stabenow—has also remained silent, as have her fellow House colleagues running for Senate seats, Rubén Gallego of Arizona and David Trone of Maryland.
