With Trump gone Romney has no incentive to go rogue any more. Anybody else out there? Shaheen maybe?

Once seated? Nope. But if the House passes clean bills we might be able to get things passed

What about the Georgia senate races? Are both going to run off or too soon to tell?

I can't see him making ot another 6 years in the Senate. If he dies soon, the Democratic governor of Kentucky gets to appoint his replacement.
