As the top elected Republican in the country, Mitch McConnell has an obligation to immediately and dramatically improve his performance.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell was asked yesterday about Republican prospects for the November elections.
“I think there’s probably a greater likelihood the House flips than the Senate. Senate races are just different, they’re statewide, candidate quality has a lot to do with the outcome,” McConnell replied.
The media and others on the left were of course thrilled with the Republican leader’s “notable quotable” disparagement of Republican candidates and the voters who chose them, which somehow came off even worse on video.
What was McConnell thinking? What in the world was he thinking?
Unnecessarily ceding an incredibly winnable Senate to Democrats three months before an election is a great example of the leadership choices that have led McConnell to be the least popular national politician in the country, according to the RealClearPolitics average. And it’s a good example of why so many Republicans — grateful as they may be for his successes — think it’s time for new leadership.
Still, for the time being, McConnell is the top elected Republican, and he has an obligation to effectively lead the Republican team, respecting the voters and who they have chosen.

Mitch wants to lose.
We are fighting a two-front war.
The most damaging entities to our Republic — in order:
1. Biden administration
2. DOJ and its minion organizations
3. Democrats
3. Republican senators
Yes, the Republican senators are tied with the Democrats. Not a typo…
NO! HE MUST STEP DOWN! THIS IS WAR!! He’s CLOSE TO THE ENEMY and is SABOTAGING the REPUBLICANS !!!
We. Eed to CA?L ALL REPUBLICAN SENATOS and asm them if they are voting g for McConnell for LEADER!! If they say yes. They are dancing on their trapdoors.
BINGO.
I’ve posted this before but; The mother of an ex-employer of mine once talked about her travels and said; “We travel all over the world and noticed the workers in most countries don’t have cars or nice houses and they seem perfectly happy. Why can’t our workers be like that?”
I remember reading an article in which Stumble said he’d much rather be minority leader as it’s an easier job.
Twice in recent history we’ve given them control of the House, the Senate, the Presidency, a nominally conservative Supreme Court. And most recently, the most pro-American President in modern history intent on implementation of the very policies on which they campaign and fund raise.
And what did they do? In the case of complete government control, nothing. Sat in the corner and waited for it to all go away. In the case of Trump, sandbagged, sabotaged, undermined, back stabbed him at every opportunity.
maybe cause vance is right across the river from mitch?
mitch doesn’t want any repub senators that don’t sign over their proxie vote to mitch
Good post!!!
Mitch doesn’t want to win the Senate back, if the base chooses the candidates.
“I’m taking my ball, and going home.’
Mitch is taking up space, and needs to go. He’s 80, and has rotted more each year. Nobody likes a bad apple.
No we don’t!
We need him to step DOWN and LEAVE.
