Mitch does not support Harry Reid. He speaks out on the floor ofn the senate against Reid and Obama. I too wonder if the rhino haters are democrats acting like tea party people. I worked along side tea party people in the last presidential election. They supported Mitt Romney once he became the nominee. Do you even live in Kentucky? We love Mitch here. The senate republicans are outnumbered in the senate and their hands are tied. The republicans in the house and that includes the tea party people, because without the republicans the tea party cannont do anything either. We must all stick together if we truly want to get things done.
McConnell supports Reid.

Is McConnell or is he not pushing for Amnesty via some kind of comprehensive Immigration Reform?
Did McConnell support Ted Cruz’s efforts to defund Obamacare?
You may love McConnell but he is a pariah here on Free Republic. Giving him the power to compromise with Obama on every issue, like he is very inclined to do, would be worse than the Status Quo.
If he would resign his position in the Senate leadership, I might even support him monetarily. But he has no business being the leader of the opposition party when he is leading the GOP down the same road the democrats are heading.
Quite an imagination you have.
You mean like Mitch does?
We are going to crush the Tea Party everywhere (even if we have to be despicable in Mississippi)
I am in Kentucky and many conservatives are sitting this one out as they have grown disgusted with Mitch’s slimy tactics, race baiting, back room deals to support whatever kook policy the democrats want and lack of ANY leadership or push back whatsoever against the democrats and obama.
There were many procedural tactics Mitch could have used to slow Reid down and he did none of them and capitulated on higher taxes. I know some conservatives who are going to hold their noses and ask for forgiveness for voting for the slime bag as well. Even among this group I get the distinct impression that they are quite fed up with having no choice-—again. You get full blow liberal or liberal lite, some choice.
Those who are pure It’s All About the Republican Party animals in the state would vote for FDR if they put an (R) in front of his name, they are almost as bad a the low information voters because they just do what the Party tells them.
Mitch is not well liked and in most cases out right hated in Kentucky. The only way he wins is if he pulls lots of democrat cross over votes in coal counties and if that idiot Grimes keeps opening her mouth. Either way very very little to no representation for conservatives on this ticket.
You must live in Frankfort or Lousiville then. We hate his guts out here. I see Alison signs everywhere, not a single McConnell sign anywhere. Fancy Farm was a clue to how much he is hated out here, DESPITE his bussing in 'Team Mitch' to try and shout down those booing him last weekend.
The senate republicans are outnumbered in the senate and their hands are tied.
You get those talking points from Mitch's office of Boehner's?
The republicans in the house and that includes the tea party people, because without the republicans the tea party cannont do anything either. We must all stick together if we truly want to get things done.
Your Ruling Class stooges like McConnell and Boehner have gone to war on Conservatives and stick together with the Democrats, giving Obama whatever he wants without any opposition. "In order to get things done'. Like Amnesty.
You can take your electioneering for the Ruling Class stooge McConnell and shove it. We want him gone.
McConnell is worse for the Constitution and for Conservatives than if Grimes were in that seat. Art least we know who she is, and she will have to stab us from the front, instead of sneaking up behind us like McConnell does to stab us in the heart from the back.
republicans in the house and that includes the tea party people, because without the republicans the tea party cannont do anything either.
If the GOP wants the support of the TEA Party perhaps they should quit backstabbing the TEA Party.
You may want to stick with a guy who's firing a gun into your back, but I would rather have an enemy doing it from the front. He may have cost us the Senate seat in Mississippi with his tampering, and i'm hearing that they are using that Racist attack tactic in Georgia now.
If Mitch does not receive any consequences for his use of this vile and evil tactic, he and everyone else is going to use it again next time to do even more damage to us.
