 McConnell to Dems: Confirm Gorsuch or Lose More Senate Power
("Fox News Sunday" with Chris Wallace)

Although the rules of the Senate are in the hands of Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., the Democrats are the ones putting their future numbers at risk if they filibuster Judge Neil Gorsuch's Supreme Court confirmation this week and force the senator to invoke the nuclear option.

"[Judge Gorsuch] will ultimately be confirmed," McConnell told host Chris Wallace on "Fox News Sunday." "Exactly how that happens will be up to our Democratic colleagues."

I still don't believe he has cajones big enough to take on the democrats.  He hasn't in the past (he has caved on his past threats) so there is no reason to think he will in the future.
