Somehow I don’t think crowing about “crushing” the tea party is going to win over very many conservatives in November. Who came up with that strategy?

Cornyn, discussing the McConnell primary’s implications earlier today on a semi-regular call with Texas reporters, called such primaries “an intra-family fight.” Once voters settle it, he hopes to see all elements of the party rally behind a nominee.

Translation: You trouble-making conservatives get back in the basement where you belong and let us govern as we see fit.

Remember: This newspaper is to the left of the Manchester Guardian, much less USA Today, the New York Times and Washington Post.

Politics is the art of the possible, and you can’t pick every hill to die upon...that is the essence of it, right?

I agree.

Mitch McConnell spent 13 million in a primary, was he worried? With that much money, McConnell could of purchased round the clock ads on every TV station in Kentucky.

You can’t fall on your sword everyday. We all knew Mitch would win that primary. We are not having all that much luck in GA.

McConnell would rather work with Democrats to crush the Tea Party than work with the Tea Party to crush the Democrats

(“After the primary is over, it’s really the responsibility of everyone who wants to see a change in Washington, D.C., come November to support our candidates,” said Texas Sen. John Cornyn, McConnell’s deputy GOP Senate leader}

ONLY if your candidate actually means a change in Washington.
I will not vote for any RINO’s. You either run decent conservative candidates or you can KMA...........

How can we expect change when we keep sending the same buffoons to Washington?

Cornyn singled out Kentucky’s junior senator, tea party darling and 2016 presidential hopeful Rand Paul, for pitching in with McConnell’s reelection effort.

“Rand Paul has done an admirable job of trying to bring the party together,” Cornyn said.

No mention of Sen. Ted Cruz. Texas’ other senator, like Paul, is a tea party freshman with White House ambitions. But unlike Paul, Cruz has been quietly at war with the party’s establishment.

They sure got that right, the GOPe knows who is theirs, and who isn't.

Rand Paul is a political whore. He will never get a vote from me.

John Cornyn is a snake in the grass. He's gets a lot of flak on his Facebook page...stuff you would see on FR. He is becoming less popular and people are beginning to notice he's a hypocrite.

He's RiNO GOPe.
