He’d never do this on his own. He’s feeling the heat from the donors. They won’t pay for “noting happens in congress” again. This is a good sign.
Is it possible that McConnell found his gonads?

It’s about time “Old McDonald” starts acting like a majority leader. The internal polls for his incumbent RINO pals must not be looking good. Well, whatever it takes...........DO IT!!!
McConnell starting to feel the pressure I presume.
Good, now we can see very Conservative judges in Cali. That’s immensely important.
Things are so partisan anymore because stupid Senate rules allow the minority to have total veto power if there isn’t 60 votes. So presidents are taking more and more power for themselves. Simple majority to get things through is all it should take.
Took him long enough. I would guess he is taking a beating from the voters.

What a waste of 25 years.
McConnell playing hard ball? It is to laugh....
I’m not praising him for doing his job. And particularly for doing it years late.
It needed to be done, but he deserves no special notation for doing it long past due.
FINALLY, he reached down and found that they were actually there!
OK, who put the pods in McConnell’s cellar?!
I guess when the big donors and others took Turtle to the woodshed the other night, it was a real come-to-Jesus moment.
The fact that Bannon has announced that all senators running for re-up will be primaried, except Cruz, may jerk the slack out of some other of these laggards, too.
He should have done it from the beginning, instead he let the Dems run the show. He warned Dems last month that he could revert to this, but you don’t give your enemies a head’s up...you don’t threaten them unless you plan to follow through with those threats. He’s a turtle in every way...drags his a$$ all the time. I think his dragging had a lot to do with his personal vendetta towards Trump. Maybe he though he’d get some leverage with the White House on other issues if he didn’t push these nominees through. The guys a puke, and needs to go.
THANK YOU. A change that was 30 years late in coming, but is welcome!
This is good but one atta-boy doesn’t eliminate hundreds of aww-chit’s.
Mr. Turtle needs to retire but only if a good conservative non-establishment cuck takes his place. Otherwise nothing good would be accomplished.
oh goody!!!
snaps for McConnell :)
The turdle just took a slightly faster step? Wow? Will wonders ever cease? Next thing ya know, we’ll see the Senate pass the repeal of O’Care!
Well I’ll be damned.
