Communist

Mitch McConnell didn't like the Tea Party from the get go. He is a strategist -- a chess player. You could tell from the start that the Senate minority leader saw no upside whatsoever in having the party of Lincoln, Eisenhower, and Reagan represented by idiots like Christine O'Donnell, borderline personalities like Sharron Angle, or know-nothings like Rand Paul. But, ever being that strategist, he also realized that the Tea Party was poised to have a good run for a couple years. So he never got fully on board with them, but he did make room for them, and he carried some of their water when he had to.
But his days of carrying water for the Tea Party are officially over now. Because the Tea Party itself is officially over. Mitch McConnell has been a leader among Republicans for a long time. Now, apparently, he has decided to actually do some leading.

So what’s new. He has been doing that for years except for himself and his cronies.

I’m not the greatest fan of Mitch McConnell, but this whole article is a load of horse puckey.
It has nothing whatever to do with reality.
Yep, communist at the very least. I’m not a McConnell fan but this piece of Rouda’s sucks.
McConnell's an inside-the-beltway type to be sure, but this article says nothing to back up its title. And the author's assertion that the Tea Party is dead -- because it hasn't held any big rallies -- is deluded.
We're just focused on the primaries and, despite the disagreements at the moment, I suspect we'll agree on someone by the end.
Focus your efforts elsewhere...
He was last elected to the senate in 2008
and is not up for reelection until 2014.
Classic example of a leftist hack gloating about the way he thinks things are, assuming that the Republican establishment he so admires for dissing the Tea Party that he obviously detests is all over and that Republicans will dutifully vote for more RINOs and keep political Fuehrers such as Mitch McConnell, the chinless wonder, in power for years to come. I seriously doubt that power-besotted hacks like McConnell will be around much longer. Voters are disgusted with our congress as well as Obama and the upcoming federal election will prove it. The days of old pols like McConnell ordering congressional Republicans around as he makes cozy deals with Democrats that move their agenda forward at the expense of the people are fast coming to an end. This is not ancient Rome. Obama, despite what he thinks, is not an emperor. The voters will exert their authority next November and hacks like chinless Mitch McConnell will be the ones being kicked to the curb.
The fake journalist who wrote this is an asshat. Mitch isn't necessarily enamored with us, but he isn't interested in destroying the grass roots.
I reject the premise.
We have to be very, very careful, I think, about determining merely ineffective people and dastardly ones.
the tea party is a state of mind to me,even though people quickly tried to organize an official party,I still think the tea party state of mind has always been with us as patriotic,conservative Americans who want to have limited,just and truthful government representatives. It has taken many years and trillions of wasted dollars and a suicidal socialist regime to solidify our thinking(along with rino’s and establishment republicans who prostitute themselves)The great battle of good and evil goes on-a state of mind for truth against powers and principalities-of course they think we are gone- but,we are working and waiting,not protesting in some phoney baloney soros manipulation.So they have money and support from every nation in the world who hates us,they have our schools,unions,most media,gov. employees and colleges and universities and we have a state of mind and who? who is with us?
No.
Objective 1 = take control of the Senate away from the Democrats
Objective 2 = take control of the Senate away from McConnell
I’ll send some money for the good cause of ridding Washington of a few more RINOS....But Most of my money is reserved for getting rid of the RINO in my own backyard in 2014 Sen. Graham!!
Great idea, throw them all out.
Oh well we will get around to him in a couple of years then.
I would very much like to see Bonehead lose his speakership in the next Congress, and I had already decided to vote for the “D” against Cantor. I would rather have a “D” to fire in two years, than to give that time to Cantor so that he might dig his trench a little deeper.
that’s only a couple of years away, I had already decided to vote for the “D” against Cantor. I’m urging my friends to do likewise.
My reasoning is that I would rather fire a “D” in two years than give Cantor more time to dig his trench a little deeper.
I wish I could. But whomever he runs against in the primary, will receive my financial support.
This son of a Mitch has to go
