The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is launching a heavy TV ad buy in defense of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell in Kentucky, the latest turn in the establishment’s move to shore up GOP candidates against hard-right opponents, POLITICO has learned.

One word: amnesty.
What will they say? Mcconnell has been awol and only pops up after Obama & Reid have won.
One of the big money campaign contributors that are pulling Mitch’s strings.
Ol’ Mitch cares more about his Corporate Campaign Contributors than his constituents and their individual liberties and rights.
This is actually good news. For the Chamber of Commerce to spend money on McConnell so early shows that Mitch is in big trouble. His anti-Tea Party scheming with Karl Rove is not going over well at all and this is a defensive response.
The McConnell MACHINE is cranking gears..
oH and will be filling ballot boxes..
Zero must not lose this guy..
If you want to know who owns McConnell there is your answer.
All they want is to import cheap labor at our expense.
If you want to know who owns the US Chamber of Commerce, their biggest donors are Big Government loving Chevron and Goldman Sachs.
Alison Lundergan Grimes and Mitch McConnell have at least one thing in common: most of their campaign contributions are derived from sources outside the state of Kentucky.
“hard-right opponents”
Translation: Anyone to the right to Susan Collins.
All I can say is Matt Bevin for Senate...$$$....contribute now or don’t complain when McConnell is re-elected.
McCornhole is a goner.

It sounds like the Business Roundtable, which only allows the largest businesses as members. There's a reason Sarah Palin criticizes crony capitalism and says she's pro-market rather than pro-business.
“Mitch McConnel, Senate leader”?
Worthless hack is more like it.
