My head says it’s Mitch McConnell. He openly put partisan politics ahead of the national interest in 2009-2010, and he’s likely to do it again if Biden wins in November. His treatment of Merrick Garland was disgraceful. He has a model of minority rule through the federal system and the judiciary that is dangerous to the health of our political system. He matters. He needs to go.
But my heart says it’s Lindsey Graham. There’s just something about his obsequiousness towards a man you know he despises and the self-righteous violence of his reactionary rhetoric that drives me nuts. Besides, he might actually lose. The likelihood of beating McConnell is much lower.
The winner is . . . Graham, by a nose.
