The republicans will not do anything. LOL. The fact that there is no discussion about removing McC from the senate leadership position indicates how wrong it is for conservatives to keep wasting their votes on the GOP.

Sadly, I fear you’re right. There’s at least some speculation that Ted Cruz may help lead a charge against McConnell being nominated as the new Senate Majority Leader. That likely wouldn’t succeed, but at least the Tea Party wing can put the establishment leadership on notice that there will be ongoing accountability within the party.
There’s a lot of talk about what the triumphant Republicans will do during the next two years. I will be interested in seeing what the surviving Democrats do. What motivation do they have to support Obama anymore? Too many of them have already committed seppuku on behalf of the Dear Leader with no quid pro quo from him.
I think both parties should be leery of nominating an “untouchable” for their candidate. The dems were happy to see no repub dared criticize Obama but then the same handicap applied to them as they fought for and lost their political careers.
