 KIRK.: "Just man up and cast a vote. The tough thing about these senatorial jobs is you get yes or no votes. Your whole job is to either say yes or no and explain why."

STEPHANOPOULOS: "And confident you’re going to hold Republicans together?"
MCCONNELL: "Well, look, Mark Kirk is a great senator. He’s running this year in Illinois. I’m confident he’s going to get reelected. But the schedule in the Senate is set by the majority leader. And most of my members are very comfortable with letting the American people make this decision by electing the next president who will fill this vacancy next year."
