Mitch McConnell plans power play against Democrats.
Politico ^ | 12/21/10 | Manu Raju

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has a warning for Democrats seething over his shrewd political tactics: Get used to it.

“There’s much for them to be angst-ridden about,” McConnell said with a chuckle. “If they think it’s bad now, wait till next year.”

Mitch, talk is cheap, the proof is in the pudding; and, I haven't been too impressed with you guys in the lameduck session. But, time will tell if you guys learned anything from this past election; and, quite frankly, I don't think you have. And, Mitch, you're better than the alternative(democrats), but you've been in DC too long, it's time for you to put up or shutup and retire.

Isn’t this a hoot. Bambi toally disrobed Mitch, and even called him “Mike”. Gad what a travesty. The only thing the Dems did not blow past the fool is the DREAM act and I hear it is already embedded in several other bills. It doesn’t matter anyhow with a wide open border. Mitch is a joke. Absolute clown. The only man in America who could create a ComeBackKid. Yuck

Ummm, Mitch, they just bent you over the rail and butt-f@@@@d you in this lame duck session.

You guys need to start playing real hardball. If you think what you’ve done in the lame duck is hard on dems, you’re freaking out of touch with reality.

The word “Power” and Mitch McConnell in the same sentence? This guy is clueless, and I think we need a movement to get him to step down from GOP Senate Leadership. We need to pull a Harriet Miers on this guy.

Is Strom Thurmond having another birthday party anytime soon? Invite Mitch and have him speak, so that the PC police can run him out of his position, because that’s probably the only way to get rid of him.

Mitch McConnell doesn’t look tough let alone act tough. While he’s doing the tough guy act, Dingy Harry and The Rookie are running rings around the guy. If General Honore was the current Minority Leader, Dingy Harry would be cowering under that lectern of his as Honore was telling Dingy Harry “You’re stuck on stupid!”

“...the fire...”

Right on-GOP Senators, on the whole, don’t know what it is to have “fire in the belly”. Badly needed: more Jim Demints plus a few Michelle Bachmanns in the “saucer” of DC politics.

McConnell can't control the RINOs in the GOP so how the heck is he planning a “power play” against the Rats?

Mitch McConnell plans power play...

Can that name and those action words be in the same sentence?

Isn’t that like Lindsay Lohan having self-control?
Or Barney Frank checking out the girls?

What’s he going to do, threaten to hit them with his purse?
