The Tea Party Patriots’ super PAC endorsed Matt Bevin Friday in his race against Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell in the Kentucky GOP primary.
Jenny Beth Martin, president of Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund, said that Mr. Bevin, a Louisville businessman, is a “job creator, family man, and community leader committed to fighting for personal freedom, economic freedom and a debt-free future.”
“Unlike the incumbent, Matt Bevin has never voted to raise the debt ceiling, has never cut a deal with Joe Biden to raise taxes by $600 billion, and has never worked to ‘crush’ his political opponents,” Ms. Martin said.
Mr. McConnell has come under fire from tea party and grassroots conservative groups, including last month after he helped Democrats pass a plan that let President Obama borrow as much money as he needed to cover federal obligations for 13 months.
Mr. McConnell fired back earlier this month, predicting that tea party backed challengers in primary races were doomed.
“I think we are going to crush them everywhere,” he told The New York Times. “I don’t think they are going to have a single nominee anywhere in the country.”
Mr. Bevin and Mr. McConnell will face off in the May 20 primary and the winner will go on to run against Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes, Secretary of State of Kentucky.
A February poll from the Louisville Courier Journal showed that Mr. McConnell held a 55 percent to 29 percent lead over Mr. Bevin. It also showed that Mr. McConnell trailed Ms. Grimes in a potential general election match by 4 points, and the Democrat led Mr. Bevin 43 percent to 38 percent.

I think that you received enough posts today to convince you that McConnell IS for Amnesty. He just uses Parliamentary juggling to make it seem like he isn’t. Ann Coulter has sold out to the Republican Establishment. So has Thomas Sowell. What they say does not have any more credibility than those (DemocRAT lemmings) who use “racist” as their battle cry when they find their butt between a rock and a hard place.
I think he doesn’t care. If most GOP vote against he will vote against.
Madison project had a list of his votes.
He voted in 1986, he cosponsored an amnesty bill that never proceeded in 2000 and he voted for amnesty in 2006. He provided little opposition with his later nay votes.
