Believe it or not, McConnell’s home state of Kentucky currently has a Democratic governor, so if McConnell vacated his seat, the governor would appoint a Democrat to fill it until a special election could be held. No way in hell a guy like Mitch would allow something like that to happen while he’s still drawing breath.
Retiring as leader but still keeping his senate seat. Any day that man is still allowed in Congress is a bad day, no matter what chair he sits in.

I’m pretty sure Kentucky passed a bill saying that the replacement must be of the same party.
