During the last election, you spoke strongly that we needed to vote for McConnell... to the point of insulting the intelligence of any who disagreed.

Care to recap your arguments a year later and test them against reality?

Well, to be totally accurate, I said the Cochran race in Mississippi might be one worth losing - but with that in mind, we needed the Kentucky seat to remove Harry Reid. It was never about McConnell, it was always about Reid.

Now I probably hate McConnell more than any single member of either house...he recently bumped Boehner off that perch for me....but if we are to ever gain a conservative Republican majority in congress, we don’t need a whole lot of Democrat incumbents in the way.

Now, let’s also admit that McConnell is more exposed now than he was even just back in 2014. That’s why Cruz called him out so explicitly this week.....which Cruz would not have done prior to 2014. History is fluid, it isn’t static.

Be informed and not stupid like most people on this site. You can do better.
