[quote=Anonymous]What is so frustrating is that there ARE enough moderates in the Senate to get things done and move the country forward.  There are 60 votes for DACA protection with robust border security, there are 60 votes to fund CHIP as well as the community clinics where 40% of CHIP kids receive health care, there are 60 votes to fund the military adequately and there are 60 votes to pass a budget that would fund programs that both Republicans and Democrats value including basic research, infrastructure spending, spending on the State Department and disaster funding.
McConnell needs to get out the way and let them vote on these issues.  He has consistently tried to pass everything he possibly can with Republican votes and with the help of vulnerable Democrats like Joe Manchin.  How about actually voting on legislation that bipartisan groups of Senators have crafted.  The country is not hard right or hard left, why not govern from the center?  I actually think our President would get more done and see better approval ratings if they tried this.[/quote]
