“So give me one good reason why Conservatives in Kentucky shouldn’t just vote for the Democrat in the General Election, assuming Mitch “Harry Reid’s Bitch” McConnell wins the Republican primary.”
I can’t. Because there isn’t one. Personally, I couldn’t vote for a democrat. I would leave my ballot blank, as I did with Scott Brown in 2012. But if the people of Kentucky want to help the nation by removing McConnell from power, I’d have no problem with it.
The republicans in the senate need new leadership one way or the other. And the scheme of these people for decades has been to prevent conservatives from getting nominations, then telling republicans “hey, vote for me, because the democrat’s worse.” In McConnell’s case, the democrat would be “the lesser of two evils.” And that’s certainly saying something!
You are really off base comparing Scott Brown to Mitch McConnell….and Mass to Kentucky. Brown is a good guy in a bad state, and he doens’t always figure out how to handle it. But let me assure you, there never has and never will be a Senator from Massachusetts you will like. Period. Ain’t gonna happen.
As for electing a long time insider scum like McConnell from Kentucky…well that’s a different story. Scott Brown, in one short term, is not what is wrong with Washington. Mitch the bitch is.
