Donald Trump is my favorite President, even more so than Ronald Reagan. However, I think I’m moving on from him. I like him in the role of a clarion-calling standard bearer, and his presidency was the best I have ever seen. I don’t like him in terms of his failure to be a team player.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Monday called freshman GOP Rep.

Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski, who’d boasted of her Appropriations Committee power over pork-barrel spending, learned that lesson last week — conceding defeat to upstart challenger Joe Miller, an Iraq War veteran and Tea Party favorite. In this election cycle, the GOP grassroots also ended the tenures of incumbent Sens. Bob Bennett of Utah and Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania — despite...
