So who will be Senate majority leader next year?

Harry Reid's not running for re-election, and we're poised to depose Yertle thanks to SCOTUS obstruction and other repuke idiocy. So who gets it? Schumer? Durbin? Someone else? Warren?!

Naming Bernie Sanders as the leader would get her one.

After Bill Clinton made me leave but Bernie has been so strong this race that even a Hillary presidency will have to abide by democratic principles so I am fine with either.
