What’s Mitch McC upset about now. He knows the Republican primary voter sin in KY are not smart enough to repudiate him.

People in KY are not that familiar with the word “collaborator”. But McC they recognize, and they really seem to think that he can rescue them from some dreadful danger.

Sadly though people in KY are so uninformed that have no knowledge at all really of McC’s record. If they did, they still probably would re-nominate him.

Rubio endorsed Midge earlier today on one of the Sunday shows. Birds of feather...

We all have a bias based on the people with which we associate. I am no exception. But, I can say the folks I've spoken with in that area are fuming. I think Bevin has a real shot. It boils down to message and money. That election in Kentucky is perhaps *the* most important congressional election in 2014. Prayers, dollars, and voices are encouraged.

To anyone that thinks Mitch is a conservative: I have a bridge in Kentucky to sell you.

RINOs are Democrats

People are finally realizing this

What’s new? As I recall that senile whatever John McCain attacked JD Haworth way harder than he did zero.

That’s because JD threatened to take a job away from McLame that he actually wanted. McLame never wanted the presidency and the way he ran his disaster of a campaign proved that.

Would it ever occur to McConnell to decide to retire for the “good of the party”?

To: M-cubed; All

You beat me to the punchline!!!

I’m slipping these days...;-)

As for the rest of the comments I have seen here, it looks like the issues is well covered...

AS I have said about Cornyn, Rubio, McConnell and the rest of the feckless wonders up in D.C.

Your states are going to have just enough time to remember this time in our history, and the bonus leading up to the primaries (next year) will be in January, when the can you allowed to get kicked down the road this last week, lands...

What’s frustrating is I have my doubts about the political attention span of the people in this country and the way politicians like this can get away with their nonsense, when they need to be shown a new word...

It’s called “unemployment”...

I would also be mindful of the democrats and their seeing this as an opportunity to exploit to snake a few of these seats away from these “new” hopefuls these conservatives are looking to replace these wornout RINO doormats...

These new folks are not only going to have to defeat the incumbents, but the democrats will be looking to field their side of the equation as well...

That’s two races the new blood will have to battle...To get a chance to get up to D.C. to join the fight and try to win this war...
