Mitch McConnell and Trent Lott are working together to fund RINO candidates. Lott said recently “ We have to co-opt the Tea Party candidates as quickl;y as possible.

McConnell has got to go, or we are all wishing for a November that will make little or no difference. Many of us saw the RINO co-opt game six months ago.

“Has John McCain “sold his soul” to win re-election?”

He did that a LONG time ago!

John McCain Again Turns to Homosexual Mark Buse to Lead Re-Election Campaign
http://sonoranalliance.com/2010/08/11/john-mccain-again-turns-to-homosexual-mark-buse-to-lead-re-election-campaign/

McCain has a long history of flip-flopping on gay marriage
Yet veers to left in Senate reelection campaign by hiring homosexual lobbyist to run campaign

Looks like John McCain is veering back to the left already on gay marriage, having hired an openly gay lobbyist to manage his campaign, Mark Buse. This is more in line with his wife and daughter’s views, who openly opposed California’s Prop. 8 ballot initiative which stated that marriage is between a man and woman. Cindy McCain has a photo of her opposing that initiative as her Twitter profile picture, and both women have campaigned against it. It is clear McCain doesn’t want the Christian conservative vote.[snip]

Lobbyist Hired by Freddie Mac to Work on McCain Is Now Senator’s Aide (Buse)

[snips]”Senator McCain was talking about limiting executive compensation, and Buse was retained to nip that in the bud,” said a former lobbyist who insisted on anonymity because of continuing relationships with the companies.

Buse was nicknamed “The Ferret” because he helped his boss, McCain, find pork-barrel provisions buried in legislation. McCain has said he considered Buse to be like a son.

Buse left the commerce committee staff to lobby, signing on clients as diverse as oil giant Exxon Mobil, Wall Street firm Goldman Sachs and the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, according to the government records. He also represented telecommunications clients affected by the committee.

Buse returned to McCain’s office this year as chief of staff.

Yup! Out of the blue. Thunder, lightning, a lake in the front and a river in the back. Our water cisterns were overflowing too. The kittens were all under the beds/sofas.
