Senate Conservatives Fund Endorses Matt Bevin to oust Mitch McConnell
Senate Conservatives Fund ^ | 10/18/2013

Posted on 10/18/2013 7:40:22 AM PDT by Viennacon

LEXANDRIA, VA — The Senate Conservatives Fund (SCF) endorsed Louisville businessman Matt Bevin for U.S. Senate in Kentucky on Friday. Matt Bevin is challenging U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) in the Republican primary election on May 20, 2014.

SCF Executive Director Matt Hoskins made the following statement:

"Matt Bevin is a true conservative who will fight to stop the massive spending, bailouts, and debt that are destroying our country. He is not afraid to stand up to the establishment and he will do what it takes to stop Obamacare. We know that winning this primary won't be easy. Mitch McConnell has the support of the entire Washington establishment and he will do anything to hold on to power. But if people in Kentucky and all across the country rise up and demand something better, we're confident Matt Bevin can win this race."

SCF recently asked its members for their views on the Kentucky Senate race. Nearly 70,000 members completed the survey and 90% said SCF should endorse Matt Bevin over Mitch McConnell.

These folks are on my list to get a nice donation. Those dollars are going to be worthless soon anyway with the current crowd in charge.

Break out the tar and pitchforks for McConnell! Run him out of the Senate
and into Trent Lotts’s lobbying firm.

I like the opening statement above. Strong, forthright, no gobble-dee-gook, no wussiness, no spin, no mealy-mouthiness....I smell a winner in Matt Bevin, and my nose knows!

Corrupt McConnell is the face of what 90% of productive, hardworking Americans HATE about Congress! A 2 billion dollar bribe by one man should not be possible and it illuminates the widespread corruption of this institution.

Why do you defame whores? Slimy Mitch is a democrat. He was running ads here in Kentucky accusing Bevin of being a tax cheat and of getting a “government bailout”. He had to stop when all his accusations were proven false. Then he tried ads touting him as “leading the fight to defund Obamacare”. We all know what a lie that was. The only people who are happy with his latest pork are our rat governor and union construction workers.

Great news!

Now we only need a leader from the House republicans to emerge and take on a campaign to oust that sorry ass named Boehner.

Inasmuch as Mc Connell is the chief target of the Democrats, I suspect that certain Dem. Pacs will be ponying up to the Bevin campaign using disguised names. Mc Connell may not be perfect, but if you look at his conservative voting record it is pretty damn good. Do we really want in 2014 the same kind of fiascos we suffered in the past in Delaware, Nevada, Missouri and Indiana? If you are happy with Schumer and Reid running the Senate, just keep knocking off Republicans with people that can’t get elected.

What are you smoking?!
McConnell ENGINEERED the Republican surrender this week.
And he is FAR more likely to lose this seat for us than Matt Bevin. Why? Because Republicans and Independents in Kentucky despise him and won’t turn out. Alison Lundergan Grimes is polling AHEAD of Mitch McConnell.
The only reason Kentucky will send a rat to the senate is because they can’t bear to reelect this traitor again. He is the most unpopular senator in the country.

Grimes is only ahead in the Dem.PP Poll. I would be surprised if you trust that.

Didn’t we say that about the polls in 2012 too?

McConnell is the chief reason we lost the fight over Obamacare. He is unwilling to fight it. Will you be supporting Lamar Alexander too?

This may well be *the* most important congressional race in 2014.

The Washington Post reported the day after the Senate GOP surrender was announced that it was The White House - and not McConnell - who requested the $2.9 billion for Kentucky. It would seem odd on the surface, if true. Digging deeper, it’s just how ruthless they are. They KNOW word of it will leak, stain McConnell badly by irritating his base, and leave many of them sit home. This was done to help the lame Democrat against McConnell. For some reason the White House wants him out. Although I cannot understand way - he gives them everything he wants anyway.

But be careful about tagging McConnell with the “bribe”. The Washington Post reported the money request came from the White House. Which isn’t a bribe, but a set up for a hit job.

McConnell's so-called conservative voting record is an engineered phony chimera. He makes meaningless votes against Obamacare or excessive spending or whatever, but when the vote matters, when the leftist program could actually be stopped, he does not do what it takes to stop it. McConnell will get us permanent Obamacare, permanent high spending, illegal aliens as citizen, a feminized military, environmental whackos running rampant and a host of other problems. I am done voting for fake conservatives, and for Republicans because they are supposedly better than democrats. They are not, if they prevent us from actually pushing back. They lull us until it is too late, and the socialists they are working with then move on to the next outrage.

Goodbye Mitch, Lindsey, et al. You are done.
