Have the vote. Get them on the record.

They will have the vote. It will be in secret, as it always is. And McConnell will win.

if the GOP gets a majority this year

**************

The term “majority” is meaningless when it comes to the GOP.

Win or lose, the Dems always own them.

Yes, let’s keep Mitch the Establishment Bitch.

I would love to see McConnell replaced. But not with a mope like Hawley. Cotton would be my choice.

“Ick”, indeed.

Indeed.

Doesn’t matter whether Mitch is the leader or not. They are all uniparty and nothing will change.

Put up Tim Scott for Senate Lead. Let’s see what the RINO “rich white men” party does with that one.

I wonder if the day will ever come when Republican voters start to demand accountability or vote on the basis of results? Prolly never.

That’s a bit high (in my opinion).

Barrasso, Boozeman, Braun, Capito, Cassidy, Collins, Cornyn, Cramer, Crapo, Daines, Ernst, Fischer, Graham, Grassley, Haggerty, Hoeven, Hyde-Smith, Inhofe, Kennedy, Lankford, Lummis, Marshall, Moran, Risch, Romney, Rounds, Rubio, Sasse, Scott of South Carolina, Sullivan, Thune, Tillis, Tuberville, Wicker, Young, and McConnell himself. If anything my original estimate of 30 was a bit low.

The problem is lack of an alternative I guess. Unless someone “runs” for it. If you shoot at the king then you better not miss. Challenge McConnell and lose and he will make you pay for it. The Senators know that.

A lot of the likely new GOP senators are making it a campaign pledge NOT to vote for McConnell.

Then they can forget the good committee assignments, much less getting anything passed.

Fox News and Newsmax aren’t going to help them reach that conclusion.

Just keep peddling the emotional distracting Karl Rove approved talking points about issues outside the fundamental Constitutional ones about Liberty and Freedom.

Keep blaming anyone and everyone but the RINO’s (90 plus percent of all Republicans elected and or candidates) and keep everyone thinking the Democrats are ten times worse so you vote RINO in the General Election.

Scott won't do it because Scott is a McConnell supporter.

McConnell to Cornyn. Frying pan to fire.

We need statesmen, not politicians.

Yep. It's just intramural positioning. The pack sticks together, they tussle for lead dog position.

Just as much protection for the people as is the checks and balances where three branches of the federal government tussle for turf, but are united in strengthening the federal government.

As long as the ritual vote occurs, they persist in the myth that "the people are self governing." LOL. Right. Sure we are.

Voters in North Korea are in control, too.
