America's No. 1 obstructionist

For decades, McConnell has been celebrated (and bashed) as an obstructionist, a leader who was effective at derailing the other side’s initiatives, without much of a track record in achieving big things for his own team.

“Maybe we should call him Senator Stonewall McConnell,” one of his home state mayors said in 2013. She was a Democrat, but she meant it as a compliment.

Now, however, McConnell must find his way to majorities in a Senate where his party holds a two-seat advantage and where Democrats have pledged to at least match McConnell’s mastery of the art of paralysis

Another shameless thug who likes to hang on to power by hook or crook and has no principles whatsoever.
