Republicans, however, still have some tools for grinding the Senate's work to an excruciatingly slow crawl. (AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta, File)WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Republicans blocked a batch of mostly minor nominations by President Barack Obama late Monday in the aftermath of last month's Democratic move weakening the minority party's traditional ability to block most presidential appointments.
