New Senate Majority Leader Republican Mitch McConnell of Kentucky announced that the U.S. Senate's new goal is to not be scary.

McConnell has reportedly set this goal to assure the public that there will be a presidential victory for the Republicans in the upcoming 2016 elections. In an interview in the Capitol Hill office of McConnell, he explained that he does not want the Americans to think that having a Republican president plus a Republican-run Congress will be a scary situation.

He adds that the Americans should be comfortable with the Republicans having control over the Senate and the Congress. The latest goal of McConnell is far from his first goals back in 2010 when he announced his most important goal was to make United States President Barack Obama serve the country for just one term.

McConnell also said that adding a Republican president to the governing majority is the single best thing the Party can do for their nominee who will end up going against the Democrats.

However, this is just one of the many goals of the new senate majority leader as he still pursues to divide the Democrats via the annual spending bills that they will be presenting to Obama. Last December, the spending bill that would benefit the Wall Street firms was supported by Obama while the Democrats had a split decision.

Also, there are only 54 Republicans in the Congress and in the Senate but McConnell needs 67 votes in order to dominate the veto power of Obama if he decides to use it. He then needs Democrats to vote with them and against Obama.

He did say that there are rank-and-file Democrats who want to be relevant and want to be part of the process. With this, there is a chance that they could pass legislation in the Senate with the help of the Democrats.

McConnell, however, admitted that he is still carefully negotiating issues on immigration and entitlement reform with the Democrats.
