2. I saw Senator McCaskill on CSPAN this morning.
She was great. She explained in detail how the GOP Senators are putting anonymous holds on nominees, then when the six day period is up and whomever doing the holding is supposed to be identified, they withdraw the hold and another Senator places a hold for six more days, and so on and so forth. She likened it to a "tag team". Then she got through about 15 nominees, forcing Vile Kyl to have to object to each one. The GOP Senators are a despicable bunch. Their obstructionism was in full view today.
