re: #165 NJDhockeyfan
The Senate has been doing almost nothing for years hence the abysmal approval ratings. Some new blood is what America wants and I think they just did that. I welcome the change. Let’s see if the Senate can do finally sit down and do their job.
If I thought for a second that McConnell could get the unruly children of the party to sit down and behave long enough to work out some sort of equitable deal with the President, I might welcome the change of pace or at least agree that it’s not as bad as it could have been. But Boehner has spent the last 4 years getting threatened with being unseated every time he tried to rock the boat, so what hope does Mitch have? It’s going to either full-blown craziness or gridlock. There’s no third option anymore.
