Mitch McConnell represents the absolute worst of American partisan politics. I think Dana Milbank is justified in saying that McConnell has wrecked the Senate as a defensive bastion of the minority against the majority. Harry Reid holds some responsibility for starting the fight, but McConnell was behind the original plan to deny Obama and - that's ANY - appointments to lower courts. McConnell attacked the administration by crippling the lower courts.

McConnell should be hanged by the neck until dead, for treason against the Constitution, which he swore upon the Bible to defend with his life.
