Interesting thought though. If Republicans piss too many off, Romney, Mirkowski, Collins (I think they all have at least 2 years left) could use another vote to keep thing a bit less horrendous and Vance from being tie breaking vote.

****thanks to all for pointing out Romney's out as of 2025. I knew he was not running again. Didn't check to see when his term ended.
