About this cartoon: President-Elect Joe Biden's hopes of getting much of anything of his agenda through the Senate may depend on GOP Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell, who has vowed to block Biden's "entire" agenda, much as he did against Barack Obama. The key to power rests in two Senate runoff elections in Georgia taking place in January. If the GOP wins one or both, McConnell will narrowly have the votes to keep blocking legislation, as he did with the items shown in this cartoon. Should the Democrats win both seats, the Senate will have a 50-50 tie that Vice President Kamala Harris can break in the Democrats' favor.
