“They’ve been told the reason we can’t get to better outcomes than we’ve gotten is not because the Democrats control the Senate and the White House but because Republicans have been insufficiently feisty. Well, that’s just not true, and I think that the folks that I have difficulty with are the leaders of some of these groups who basically mislead them for profit. . . . They raise money . . . take their cut and spend it” on political action that hurts Republicans.”
“Insufficiently feisty”, eh? if he is referring the the average Repub. caving in to each and every Dem demand, then yes - we do find them “insufficiently feisty”.
And he makes a cute little joke there about the Tea Party groups “taking their cut”. Really? Trying to sow distrust there. It’s certainly not as if the established Repub groups do anything of the sort, eh? No no no no no.
This guy isn’t a Rhino - he is a pig.
Instead, you chose to pull the rug out from under them and kiss up to Harry Reid and ObaMao.
Your chance for leadership permanently died then. Even John Boehner proved himself to be more of a leader than you. And that's a pretty low bar to clear.
“I don’t wanna be overly cocky, but I’m gonna be the Republican nominee next year.”
No problem Mitch. If that is the case, conservatives will vote for the Democrat. You don’t support our candidates and we won’t support you. How ya like those apples, Mitch?
If so then the Republicans will lose again.
Actually, he might be right. Being as the role of Republicans is to submit candidates that will never win, in cooperation with Democrats -- so that Democrats can continue to implement the Globalist agenda -- I could see this happening.
Um... No.
Really mitch, you look like an old woman, are you psychic! Piece of shitte.
Mitch thinks that we’re mad at the Republicans because they are “feisty”. He not just needs to be thrown from office, but launched from office. He has no idea about the tea party or his own party, for that fact.
“because Republicans have been insufficiently feisty. Well, thats just not true...”
Your honor, I submit into evidence:
The Cuccinelli campaign.
Where’s the support and money?
Case closed.
Clearly, we’ll have to work with the GOPe. Revolutions usually fail. Why? They don’t compromise and incorporate the ruling classes values. How can we do both? We are going to create losers. They don’t want to lose.
Mitch, the actions of your NRSC hurt Republicans glaringly and most recently in VA.
The reason the Republican lost in Virginia was because an Obama bundler financed the Liberetarian candidate who took votes from the Republican. I wonder how much Democrat money will be behind McConnell’s opponent in the primary?
McConnell is guilty of TREASON. And I think the appropriate penalties should apply.
Seeing as how a sitting Senator has a 95% chance of re-election, I don’t doubt what he says.
No dice. The GOP had the house, senate, White house and a working majority in the Supreme Court. And they gave us the NSA, Patriot act, TSA, Prescription Drug, a pussified approach to war, 4 dollar gasoline in the spring of ‘08. and an explosion of government spending.
So he cannot claim that all our problems now are that the same GOP leaders do not currently control the levers of power.
McConnell has a point. The tea party cannot run birthers or we will lose every single time and destroy any chances at taking back the party.
Before the shutdown the Senate Conservatives Funds did put out some false information. I don’t know much about that group, but I will certainly check into it.
We have a lot of people ranting and raving about the fact that the GOP-e hasn’t tried to impeach Obama. Well, that just ain’t gonna work. The trial takes place in the Senate. Obama would never be convicted by a Democrat-controlled Senate.
What good has it done for Boehner & the House to vote 40+ times to repeal Obamacare? None, zip, zero, nada.
I can’t stand the GOP-e either. They’re clueless when it comes to playing hardball, but I also can’t stand the blind ignorance of mobs. I will not be a party to group-think.
I will choose the candidates I support. I will support them financially. I will not be led around by the nose banging the primary drums against any candidate who has a solid, conservative voting record.
If this guy gets the warm wet kiss of the RNC, it will be crystal clear the party has become nothing but a cruel joke to anyone who ever supported it.
I don't give a crap how feisty republicans are! What pisses me off is that they are NOT committed to smaller governemnt, states rights and balanced budgeting.
The Turtle will be retired one way or another. It is easier to replace a bad DemoncRAT than an incumbent Repuglickin. If he wins the primary don’t. vote or vote for the *gasp* DemoncRAT. One way he must be retired for his cowardly behavior and sell out results. He is a DemoncRAT at heart, hates conservatives and is therefore the enemy.
Establishment GOP’s take on politics is “WE GO SLOWER”. That’s ‘slower’ to the destination Democrats have chosen... Somehow that’s not much of a rallying cry.
