Republican divide: Sessions, McConnell split over Supreme Court vacancy

(CNSNews.com) – In apparently refusing to hold a confirmation hearing on President Obama's Supreme Court nominee, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is "doing exactly what Harry Reid would do if he were in the majority at this time," Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, told Fox News's Megyn Kelly Tuesday night.
"Mitch McConnell used to serve on the Judiciary Committee. He understands this completely. So we're just not going to move this nominee because it's going to allow the next president to fill this seat. It's a decisive seat on the court," Sessions said.
