I would rather have McConnell as majority leader than Reid.
R vs. D matters because of the Courts. The Democrats running the Senate did away with the filibuster, so that Obama’s nominees to the federal bench have a clear path to confirmation. I understand the frustration in Mississippi, but anything that allows the D's to control the Senate in 2015 and 2016 would be absolutely tragic.
It is possible for things to get worse than the status quo.

You think Romney would have been the same? No way.

But then you have to contend with the likes of Lindsey Graham, who said he would support Obama's judicial nominees because elections have consequences and the president deserves to get the people he chooses.
Something you would never hear come out of the mouth of a Democrat.
