McConnell would rather his seat go to an Obama MarxoFascist stooge than to a Conservative.
His attack ads against Bevin will NEVER rise to those ugly levels against Grimes in the General. It will be kid gloves against her, after he stabbed, shot, burned and buried Bevin with one outrageous attack ad full of crap after the other.
I’m not too sure of that. McConnell took enough of a blowtorch to Ashley Judd last year that it scared her out of running.
I’d be willing to bet that a LOT of McConnell’s support comes from people who don’t like him, but think that the KY seat could be the deciding factor in retaking the Senate next year and don’t have confidence in the more ideologically acceptable Bevins to be able to take on Grimes and the KY Dem machine (which is pretty powerful).

You mean just the way Romney went after his GOP rivals in the primary, then went to sleep when time came to contest FUBO. And now, it looks as though he’s looking for a threepeat. Cruz was right, we’ve had enough of “presidents” like Dole, McLame and Romney. It’s going to be “interesting” to see what “old fossil” the GOPE trots out in 2016. The Lord has largely taken care of all the old RATs in the Congress, time to start working on the RINO’s The only really old RAT left is Fineswine and she looks like death warmed over.
