Why do people still not understand this? It's extremely important that McConnell not get control of the Senate again. Anyone who doesn't know why needs to review some recent history (i.e., the Obama administration), when McConnell did his level best to prevent everything Obama wanted to do from even getting to the Senate floor. Have people already forgotten about that? It was a nightmare!
