Dingy Harry's nuclear option will assure that Sen. Jeff Sessions will be our next AG, payback is sweet Harry.

You assume that the faint-hearted McConnell will employ the nuclear option -- no sure thing.

You also assume that the likes of Lindsay Graham, John McCain and Susan Collins et al will vote or Sessions -- no sure thing.

You assume they won’t back Sessions, while nothing is a sure thing I’m betting they will.

McConnell will if his wife’s confirmation is last, and made contingent on him cooperating.

Trump choosing McConnell`s wife for a cabinet post may have the benefit of keeping McConnell in line.

Trump has some democrats that will vote with him too, the democrats in red states who are up for election in 2018.

He also assumes that there won't be any Jumping Jim Jeffard wannabes.

Tired of winning? So many fatalists out there - must suck to go through life being disappointed before the disappointment comes.

I am afraid that McConnell who opposed the nuclear option in favor of Senate traditional rules, might want to go back to them in spite of the way Dems played dirty in the past.

We simply have to play by the same rules or the Dems will kick our butts time after time and do it without shame.
