Of course, you would not know better. I understand how much you really know. But the Senate was down a man because of Franken's disputed election that took 8 months to settle. They had Lieberman, who was a Repub in Dems clothing. He even ran for being a VP in the Republican party. One long term Repub ran as a Dem when he saw he was going to lose, He sided with the Repubs. The senate was essentially a dead heat on policy.
So what? It was two years. If you 'rats have some internal squabbles then it's your own dam fault.
