Better McConnell than an appointment from Demonratic governor Andy Beshear.

*Better McConnell than an appointment from Demonratic governor Andy Beshear.*

Not to worry. I do believe the party(GOP) would give the rat governor 3 republicans to choose from for the immediate future. Don’t know if there’s s special election or wait until the next midterm/POTUS election. The issue was decided in Ky. a couple of years ago. Other states may have a different setup that should be changed to the same.

Too many geezers ready to croak now.

At this point, I'm not so sure.

The Democrats have a +1 nominal majority right now, even though the real balance is 49-48 with Fetterman, Feinstein, and now McConnell in the hospital. McConnell's stay is likely going to be short (unless he has something like a hip fracture), so the Senate will be tied at 49-49 given the chronic nature of Feinstein's and Fetterman's conditions.

So replacing McConnell with a Democrat won't matter much in the already Democrat-controlled Senate, but it will give us a chance to put a new Republican into the Senate in 2024.

Yep. Miotch isn't going anywhere until Gov. Cameron is ready to appoint himself to Miotch's seat.

Some of you all are overreading this -- Miotch has a history of being clumsy, particularly tripping (he should give up wingtips, not even the best Italian-made wingtip will give you the true 'feel of the road').

He fell forward, not backwards. But he must have had a plate or a drink in his hand and so he didn't brace for impact.

Now ask yourself, the man doesn't have a brain, so really there's nothing to injure. This is truly just an observational pause in the hospital, ruling out hematoma, etc.; sorry to rain on the FRacebooking parade, but it is what it is.
