Maybe we can get some “peaceful protesters” to block the hospital entrance.

Okay guys:

I'm not wishing anyone dead here.

I'm just looking at what happens if Leahy dies:

He is a senator from Vermont, which has a republican governor.

If the republican governor has a spine, he would name a Republican to replace him for the rest of his term.

Then the Republicans would control the Senate for 2 years, and we could rest easy for a while regarding making DC a state, SCOTUS packing, Dominion and cheat-by-mail-in ballots being permanent.

Just sayin...

“Vermont has a Republican Gov. /s”

Surprisingly 5 of the last 10 including the current Governor of Vermont has been a Republican. Surely in name only. From 1856 to 1963 only Republicans were elected.

Since Ruthie didn’t get her last wish, Romney has offered to vote in place of Leahy.

Mitch is such a great negotiator, he can swing a deal to let 49 be the new majority for the party that most recently had 50.

Leaky Leahy has Pernicious Trump Derangement Syndrome brought over from the House - Patient Zero was Maxine Waters. She had the dual-diagnosis of TDS and Hopium Withdrawal. Masks don’t help except to hide Maxine’s ugly face to prevent rampant nausea.

We could see an epic swing of fortunes depending on the health of some old farts.

Many of those senators are but Spring chickens, or they were when first elected back in the 19th Century. They’re mostly under 100.

I think this is right...It takes a special election in Vermont...scheduled by the Republican Governor within six months of the vacancy.
