The more things change...
Nice to see Lugar on the Foreign Relations Committee. He’s a real asset there...minus the et.

2012 and 2014..
Under “leadership” like this, we failed to pass a energy policy by one cloture vote.. the vote of a Rino, Coleman.
Mitch probably never even asked Norm to reconsider his vote is my suspicion.
This is what passes for leadership these days.
and folks wonder why we are in the place we are today. Gas 3.50 a gallon, rising food prices due to ethanol and drilling bans.
Go ahead, applaud if you will, but don’t hope for too much.. until the Senate gets a good enema.

I sure hope that Mitch gets it right the first time. There will be no second time.

Lugar—the ultimate cure for insomnia. The guy’s bones are built out of anti-charisma.

Well, in the U.S. Senate, mediocre is about the highest standard you can find...there are so very few that even rise to mediocre.

Mitch McConnell is a blithering idiot. The senate is the venus flytrap where Conservatives go to die. Think! Lisa Murkowski given a leadership role? I won’t even bother with the others. Maybe Michael Steel was lucky to get out of the Republican infrastructure. Who would pay a dime in support of this leadership team?

Pathetic leadership is a GOP hallmark. Time for a Conservative takeover.

The same wave in Ky that brought Rand Paul to office will usher out “The Gobbler” McConnell in his next election.

This illustrates just how far out of step the Republican Party’s leadership is with the grass roots.

The good ole boy practice of doing your time, and it will be your turn to hold office or chairman-seat is not a good thing. Same one same ole way of doing business in Washington. Like Dole running for President ... it was his turn, he had served his time. It did not matter he was not the strongest candidate, or our best, smartest, most vital candidate. It was his turn.
Same with John McCain running for the second time. Of course, Bush beat John out in the primaries. Still, he did not deserve to be the best candidate we had during the last election
We do need the Republicans to make real change, and conservatives to come to the fore more. MOO.

The thing we MUST do is keep our eyes on the Senate for 2012 and not get so involved in the presidential race that we forget to elect conservative senators into the majority. If obama should win a second term, we must have the Senate as a safety net.

The establishment Senate is going to be a big pain in the butt until we eliminate the RINOS in 12 and replace the Leader.

The topic groupings for the committees are putting my teeth on edge.
