McConnell and Kean are still MIA [View all]

As of today, McTurtle has not been seen in 24 days and Kean has been gone for an amazing 115 days!
Are they in hiding out in Galt’s Gulch, waiting for the rest of us to fail at running the country so we will beg them to come back? Anyone have any inside info, or just want to make a guess? My guesses are fall and serious brain injury for McTurtle, and rehab or God knows what for Kean.

Should their constituents demand proof of life?
