McConnel Is Good At Winning, Not Much Else. On Course To Shut Down Government?

McConnell is good at winning, and not much else. His obstructionist strategy has helped Republicans take control of Congress again, but that's all they've done. In the meantime, Obama rewrote health care policy without G.O.P. input and won reelection. The Atlantic.

VINIK: McConnell is on course to shut down the government. With Republican leadership promising to force a vote on repealing Obamacare using the reconciliation process and pledging to stop executive action on immigration using "any procedural means necessary," there is little reason to think that the White House and Congress will avoid shutting down the government again. The New Republic.
