They both need history lessons and a spanking in public!

I think they both are beyond useless, but the old saying of keeping your friends close and your enemies closer comes to mind.
I would see about burying them in useless work as best is possible and point out their every deficiency at every opportunity.
Im hoping that the Democratic Party will not support either next time around when it is time for the money to be handed out for campaign work.

They will truly flip, McConnell becomes Senate Majority Leader, the GOP kills the filibuster, and nothing gets done.
