On another thread we were discussing this issue, and someone (I think greeneyes - but I could be wrong - apologies if so) made the point that the conference on the tarmac was about offering Loretta Lynch a SC appointment if LL would do her thing to keep the alligators off HRC.
I had been wondering why McConnell had fended off the dems not to seat Obama’s nominee, and the point was made that perhaps it wasn’t because he had suddenly developed some brass, but had instead held off with the thought that HRC would get in and would want to exercise the appointment.
Hmmm.
