True Conservatives and Tea Party folks will not forget that Mitch said he would "crush" them. Most of them will not "take one for the team" and vote for McConnell. They will either stay home, or, skip the Senate race and vote down ballot or, vote for Grimes. How can McConnell expect them to vote for him? It ain't happening.

RINO hunt!

Need Thad to step down in MS after the re-election is announced. Clear out the ‘go along to get along’ RINO crowd.

[ClearCase_guy]

My prediction: the Liberal will win.

[Slump Tester]

Either way, it’s a win for the rats.

[tennmountainman]

Good riddance to McConnell.

In that right there, IMHO, McConnell lost the Nov race. People don't take kindly to those sorts of in your face insults.

I reckon Mitch was feeling his oats and his pants got a little too big when he can out with that remark. It's a remark he can never, ever take back and will bite him in the ass big time come Nov.

It was so sweet to see that smug smirk wiped off Eric Cantor's face.

It would be even sweeter to see it wiped off McCockel's face.

There is no difference between him and a Democrat.

[ChildOfThe60s]

Wrong on one count. We aren’t voting for Grimes.

The Dems know he has driven away the party base and this will energize their get out the vote efforts.

But we are not voting for a far leftist to get rid of a liberal GOPe. He’s just burned his bridges and he’s on his own. The smarmy prick.

ABC NEWS RATING: Toss-up

I cannot quite believe that ABC News supposes that the senatorial race in Kentucky is a mere "Toss-up."

Stu Rothenberg (in The Rothenberg Political Report) lists it as "Leans Republican"; and this, as recently as July 10.

Kyle Kondik--writing in Larry Sabato's Crystal Ball, also on July 10--notes that "[A]ll the remaining incumbents in the 11 contests left to go are at least small favorites from here on out." He continues: "Probably the likeliest Senate incumbent loss would come on the Democratic side, where appointed Sen. Brian Schatz (D-HI) faces a challenge from Rep. Colleen Hanabusa (D, HI-1)."

Unfortunately, I am aware of no recent poll in this regard--although Rasmussen had Sen. McConnell up by seven points in a poll of likely voters conducted between 5/28 and 5/29.

I agree.

But as bad as McConnell is and in spite of his stated goal of crushing te TEA Party, he enjoys the support of other high-profile RINOs.

One might send a message by voting for neither...

Of the two candidates, one mentioned a desire to punch tea parties in the face.

So does that candidate deserve conservatives’ support?

[ScottinVA]

"Grimes even wrote a letter to Bevin voters and independent voters a few days after the primary promising to be a 'fresh, independent voice in Washington that puts Kentucky and its people first – not Washington insiders.'”

LMAO!!!! Where have I heard that before?

[jwalsh07]

Any conservative that votes for a democrat is no conservative in the first place.
