"that he could have ascended to majority leader earlier if not for forces like the Senate Conservatives Fund."

And therein lies the cause of Mitch's open and vicious attitude towards conservatives! They thwarted HIS ascent to power!!

Especially after 2010, Mitch wanted to be Majority Leader, he ceded lots of power to Harry Reid in the Majority Leader position because he thought he would capture the position in 2012. They nominated a slew of "electable" senate candidates, and of course they had Mitt Romney at the top of the ticket, for they had succeeded in preventing a conservative nominee and got their "electable" candidate.

But millions of conservatives stayed home in 2010, taking down not only Romney, but also the slew of senate candidates.

And Mitch was out for blood and vengeance. He vowed to "crush" conservatives in 2014. And he did. And then as Majority Leader in 2015 he teamed up with his buddies the democrats to pass ANYTHING conservatives were against, and thwarted EVERYTHING the conservatives were for.

Mitch McConnell is very vindictive and bitter man!

Again, this is one of the hundred reasons why most people are negative about Washington insiders and their methods of running the nation. The memoir only proves why people are ashamed of the party apparatus.

If McConnell were to have been a Greek his name would have been Ephialtes.

Romney was at the top of the ticket in 2012, not 2010.

Mitch is probably why Lois Lerner still gets a government check and not wearing orange jumpsuit.

Mitch and Paul are treasonous traitors

McConnell is part of the problem
