Since the Democratic establishment is backing behind a Wall Street shill as the next (possible) Majority Leader, let's see if Atlas can get this right.

Warren (normal)

I love Warren, but she's too new; the Majority Leader should be someone who has been in Congress for a while so they have a working history with most of the rest of the chamber.

I'd prefer Murray.

Klobuchar sounds like a decent choice.

Not a Democrat, but literally anyone but Chuck Schumer.

What you boys want, and what you are going to get, have apparently a zero nexus. Take it to Atlasia. Tongue

If I were a Democrat, I'd want an experienced hand with ties to the administration, so I voted Durbin. If you make these polls, include a Not A Democrat option because the temptation is just too much for me Tongue.

Warren. Murray disqualified herself by embracing austerity during her time on the "super-committee."

Kirsten Gillibrand as leader and someone like Martin Heinrich as Whip. Democrats need younger people at the front, especially if Hillary is president in 2017.

Whether or it is for the majority, Senate Democratic leader is Schumer, once Dems obtain majority; it is for Majority Leader; but Michael Bennett would be my choice.

Patrick Leahy or Mark Warner if in minority

Mark Warner, Martin Heinrich, or Sherrod Brown if in majority OR 50/50 Senate.

No one better than former preschool teacher Patty Murray to deal with those wailing infants in the Senate.

Durbin, but I can live with Schumer.  Btw, Lebron, while Schumer is certainly too cozy with Wall Street, calling him a DINO is ridiculous at best.  It's so out there that it doesn't even work as hyperbole.

Not a democrat, but I'd be OK with Klobuchar or Durbin. Pretty much anyone would be better than Schumer though.

Why do you already hate Schumer?
