You can list all kinds of things that McConnell supposedly supports. But the bottomline is he is bought and paid for by the same entities that have bought off democrats.
McConnell was there when we worked our butts off to give W the House and the Senate in his 2nd term. And still they did their master’s bidding and those masters are the Banksters on Wall St. and the US Chamber of Commerce. They grew government and spent the public’s tax revenues like drunken sailors.
Out here in conservative land, they hate us and will do the same things the democrats will do to marginalize, defund and demoralize us.
And we are in position as a result of their maneuvering that we cannot win as long as they hold power. They can wag their fingers at us, call us names, belittle us and tell us we have nowhere else to go, and we better vote for them else the democrats get the power.
It is better that they go away so that we have a chance at getting the republican party back in our control. Either that or go 3rd party. We win nothing by voting in McConnell’s people. We lose no matter what unless we gain control of the GOP or go 3rd Party.
I personally have no issues with bankers, Wall Street, or the Chamber of Commerce (except I strongly oppose amnesty for illegals).
I have no problem with pro-business senators and congressmen like McConnell (who btw is an ardent champion of coal in his state).
There have been instances throughout my life where the candidate I voted for in the primary did not win. But I have NEVER encountered an instance where the DEM candidate was superior to the REP candidate, at least not here in CA where nearly all Democrats are effectively Marxists.
Long ago I realized that perfection or utopia in politics is not possible-—nothing in life is. You have to work with what you have. Sure you can go ahead and form a third party (as if there aren’t enough of them already). But a conservative third party would only succeed in siphoning off votes from the GOP and thus guaranteeing Dem victory.
In KY the choice is easy. McConnell has opposed all of BHO’s policies whereas Grimes supports all of them. There is nothing to ponder. It would be absolute insanity to throw away a GOP held senate seat over some procedural matters and differences.
Obamacare will remain the law of the land until a GOP president and House and Senate are elected dedicated to repealing it. Elections have consequences. In 2008 the voters elected a liberal POTUS, a liberal filibuster proof Senate, and a liberal House. Of course liberal policies and liberal legislation were the result. And we cannot count on the SCOTUS to overturn all of this crap.
Say what you like about McConnell but he has opposed all of BHO’s policies, but because the GOP is in the minority in the US Senate there is little he can do about it. Harry Reid runs the Senate with an iron fist and anything he does not like or approve of is never allowed for a vote in the Senate. A vote for Grimes is simply a vote for Harry Reid to remain control. Not voting, or voting for a third party in KY by a conservative is effectively a vote for Grimes which is of course a vote for BHO and Reid. It’s that simple.
