If you think McConnell has "caved" you simply haven't been paying attention. His Heroes are Henry Clay ( The great compromiser) and Senator John Sherman Cooper a moderate Republican and friend of John F Kennedy.
All during his recent Senate campaign all he talked about was making the Senate and the Congress work and to make the Government productive. I recommend the story on him in the Nov. 4 Washington Post.
