The entrenched rot is deep in both parties and they are running scared. From CNN:
In Indiana, McConnell allies plot to stop another Cruz
Rep. Marlin Stutzman is a member of the anti-leadership House Freedom Caucus, a conservative in the mold of Ted Cruz and a three-term Indiana congressman who voted against John Boehner as speaker.
Now, he wants a promotion to the Senate -- and Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and his allies want to stop that.
Privately, McConnell has made clear to his confidantes that he wants to bolster the candidacy of Stutzman's chief GOP rival, Rep. Todd Young, and push him over-the-top in the May 3 primary, according to sources familiar with the conversations.
I hope that Mr. Stutzman becomes Senator Stutzman as soon as possible. Time to clean House (and Senate)
