Patrick Leahy will be 82 on election day next year. Richard Blumenthal will be 76. Ron Wyden will be 73. Given how fragile the Democratic Senate majority is (and how fragile any future Democratic majority will almost certainly be), why isn't there more pressure on these Senators to forgo their re-election bids and let younger politicians take the reins? Are these men really so irreplaceable? An untimely death and an unlucky special election could completely doom Democrats' ability to govern.
