Mark Levin initially compared him to the Alec Guiness character in the movie The Bridge on the River Kwai, where his pride blinded him to the fact that he was building a vital link in the Japanese supply chain.
However, that doesn't explain McConnell's undermining of the House during the first debt ceiling fight, when as minority leader he first concocted his scheme of giving the president a power subject to Congressional override, instead of no power without Congressional concurrence.
Now he just seems like an old man trying to relive past accomplishments, no matter how wrong and destructive those accomplishments were.
Last night, Levin moved away from the argument that the GOP leadership was afraid of MSM labeling and Democrat pressure, and towards the belief that they are believers in Big Government too, and all of this is intentional, starting with the lies to voters to get reelected.

Facts? Citations? Dems aren’t all in lockstep over this bill, and there is no single “Israeli lobby”.
Frankly, that ought have been Levin’s line from the start. Even aside from his recounting of what the RINO establishment did to Reagan in 1976, the three post-WWII GOP presidents up to that year demonstrated nothing but strong big-government tendencies, the first one having created the single largest public works project in US history.
