Let’s assume that the Republicans assume narrow control of the House while Democrats hold the Senate. That seems like a pretty fair assumption at this point. What should happen next?
I share the view with those who think that Nancy Pelosi should not seek the House minority leader’s position while Mitch McConnell should not resume his role as Senate minority leader. That would constitute a long overdue “changing of the guard”. Contrary to popular opinion that wouldn’t mean that we’d seen the last of the Baby Boomers. Quite to the contrary it would probably mean that Baby Boomers would hold most Congressional leadership positions for the first time.
In the current environment, I don’t know why anyone would want any of those leadership positions.
