McConnell marked the milestone with a good-natured joke about his colleague’s very unique Twitter style:
To mark 11,000th vote, @mcconnellpress made a joke about @ChuckGrassley's tweets. #IgotthetweetslikeGrassley

McConnell says "we're all familiar" with @ChuckGrassley's tweets. "Like the senator himself, they are truly one of a kind."

Love it.
Sometimes you just have to take a moment to re-appreciate the small things in life. Like Senator @ChuckGrassley's Twitter account.
