They should STICK TO THEIR STATED FUNDRAISING GOALS and back a CONSERVATIVE. There were other options.

I do not care who that is. If it is a no name, so be it. But one cannot stick to principle one min and then go all situational ethics when the traffic changes direction and BE a conservative.

I'm very much in tune with that - I voted Constitution Party rather than throw my vote away on lib-lites like Romney or McCain. But since the SCF's endorsement was not exactly brimming with enthusiasm and didn't claim McConnell was a conservative, and since McConnell's re-election would quite conceivably make the Senate less unconservative than would his general election defeat, I think it's hasty to call them hypocrites. (Whether you want to donate to them is a very different question.)
