As long as the GOP wins the Senate, I do not care if Mitch McConnell loses his race.


Does Senate control really matter at this point? The beltway GOP simply have no interest in being an opposition party.

Mitch is already mapping out his tip toe to 2016 strategy. Plan seems to be to give away the store in the lame duck and purposely limit GOP power for the next Congress.

This is all about McConnell maneuvering to limit genuine conservative opposition to the kenyan.

“Does Senate control really matter at this point? The beltway GOP simply have no interest in being an opposition party.”

Ask yourself this. Would you rather have Ted Cruz, who could very well be our nominee in2016 in the minority party where he has no voice, or the majority, where people will have to bring his bills up for a vote?

Democrats would love nothing more than for us to stay home and stay as the minority, without controlling any committees nor having even a minute chance at changing anything Obama has implemented.

Good strategy. It didn’t work in 2010… it didn’t work in 2012. Hey, here is a great idea. Let’s stay home again in 2014.

Let’s win the senate tell the rats to piss off and align our conservatives where they can have a voice as members of the majority while at the same time, look for gaps that conservatives can fill in and position us for 2016.
