And to answer your question, I don't doubt that McConnell would invoke the 'nuclear Senate option,' and that feeble old milquetoast Harry Reed NEVER will. I mean, Reed is the pathetic wimp who came out after the Debt Ceiling crisis, and the loss of America's Triple-A credit rating, and made that stupid speech about how the Senate is obviously working just fine because nobody got bludgeoned half to death with a metal pointed CANE the way Preston Brooks beat Charles Sumner in 1856. Yeah, that's right, Harry. Let's use that as a benchmark. As long as there is no attempted murder on the Senate floor, things are going just fine.


Harry Reed's one and only definition of unacceptable behavior in the Senate
