Harry Reid thinks it’s swell.

“He spent a great deal of time working on this. I commend him for his thoughtful and unique proposal, something that we have to look at very closely,” Reid, a Nevada Democrat, said on the Senate floor. “I’m heartened by what I read. This is a serious proposal, and I commend the Republican leader for coming forward with it.”

That’s like having Jack Kevorkian endorse your funeral arrangements.
In defense of McConnell, he can no longer be said to have failed to provide a suggestion.
I can get a little stronger: maybe he’s just trolling. Throwing out a little bait to see what the blowback is like in the dextrosphere. In that case, one hopes that the napalm shower is sufficient for all the GOP to realize that this is the time, this is the place to stick a fork in this Progressive beast.
