He couldn't have picked a better time. Both he and the McConnell Mummy are on the Appropriations Committee. The MAGATs were only ahead by 1. With both out, the committee has a DEM majority. Even if the Mummy comes back, the MAGATs won't have a majority, so the Dems can control some of the mad Pedo "King's" craziness, since the GOP has abdicated their responsibility to control him.
