Marginally better than the turtle.

Marginally.

[Old Retired Army Guy]

One thing at a time. Let’s first concentrate on winning the Majority on November 8th. After that, the Republican Senators will have two months to decide their leadership.

[Signalman]

Why not Ted Cruz?

[ifinnegan]

Turtle would retire if this happened I think.

[DoughtyOne]

(the Democrats) Bitch McConnell, needs to be placed in
mothballs. His reign of ‘Never Trump’ is over.

He and Ryan passed up the opportunity of a lifetime, when
they thumbed their noses at Trump, and couldn’t think of
more than one big bill to submit to him in two years.

Portions of that Tax cut bill expire in 2025.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

McConnell has some things to his credit. But mostly he is part of the corrupt system. McConnell is invested in the status quo.

[Lower Deck]

,,,could Republicans winning control of the Senate usher in Florida Senator Rick Scott as the new Senate Majority Leader?

Not while McConnell has a single breath left in his body.

[Honest Nigerian]

For those of you living under a rock back in 2019, then-Senate Minority Leader McConnell worked feverishly to defeat a young, conservative political newcomer named Marco Rubio in favor of then-Republican Governor Charlie Crist.
:::::::::::::::
2019 was just before Covid arrived. So the Editor of the Floridian might be a ….FlorIdiot? Young newcomer Marco Rubio?
Wonder what else is incorrect in the article.

[Joe Brower]

Rick Scott for Senate majority leader? We could do worse, I suppose. $;-)

The primary job of the majority leader in the US Senate is having access to donor money,that’s the turtles wheelhouse..without Mitch those greedy bastards would have to start working for a living

[Bratch]

The House doesn’t choose their Speaker nor does the Senate choose their Majority Leader.

The Chamber of Commerce anoints them.

[shotgun]

The reason he has so much sway in these elections is he controls the Senate campaign finances. He had some major hand in crafting language so that only he could say who gets any money.

It’s his way or the highway because of that.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Slightly better than McConnell or Thune. 🙄

[The Fop]

Bill Haggerty and Rand Paul are probably the best we’ve got right now. The rest of them are bad to awful.

[nfldgirl]

The old fart McConnell won’t fight for winnable seats because the candidates, in his crap opinion, are not electable, such as in NH, WA, AZ, AK, PA, etc. The candidates were chosen BY THE PEOPLE of those states, and there is absolutely no excuse for the RNC not to get behind these candidates. Republicans could easily take back the Senate were it not for this back-stabbing traitor.

[clintonh8r]

If Scott’s work results in an R senate majority then he has earned the position. McConnell has blocked many of the things that Scott has tried to accomplish, and that alone should cost Mcconnell the leadership.

Surely hope it was a mistype because it was 2010! Either a mistype or just another “fib” from a “journalist”!
