Such a “denunciation) would do no good but harm her ability to work with the Senate. I am not interested in pointless gestures.

You must be a big McConnell supporter.

Roy Moore did not think it was a meaning less gesture.

As a Tennessee voter, it is not meaningless to me either.

I put McConnell in proper perspective. Not a “big fan” but a understand that being the Majority Leader for Republicans is a thankless and near hopeless task.

It isn’t Totalitarian like the Democrat where you can count on the votes you want.

Do you seriously think that ANY ML could deal with McCain or Murkowski or Collins?

One of the reasons he has the job is because NO ONE wants it. Who has indicated any interest? Who is willing to put in the grunt work for this time-consuming and thankless job?

Under McConnell’s leadership, the GOP senate hasn’t accomplished squat.
Who would replace McConnell? Someone would step up, as McConnell
stepped up when Frist retired.

Any ML worth his/her salt would rescind all the RINOS' committee memberships and any other responsibilities as legal. Make their lives as uncomfortable as possible.

A Chi Omega at State

That’s a plus too

Chi Omega and Tri Delt and KD

That’s the troika at Ole Miss and State

Yes I know it’s different in Tuscaloosa and BR and Knoxville

Marsha’s web site:

https://www.marshablackburn.com/

You can sign up for email update and/or contribute to her campaign.

This is the lady that should have replaced Boner [sic] as House Speaker.

Her lifetime ACU rating is 96%. Best of any of the GOP House members from Tenn.

You can bet that if the post turtle retires his minni me John RINO Cornyn will be demanding he be installed. Because it’s they way it’s always been

I’d ask Marsha if she would support Either McTurtle or Cornball as Leader. If she says yes to either she’s playing games

Also, wasn’t she the one sleeping with House Whip McCarthy?

No, that was Renee Elmers from either North or South Carolina.

I don’t think she will answer either question,
unlike Roy Moore did in Alabama.

It’s not a disgrace, it’s mass murder. It’s government sanctioned mass murder put in place by deceit. I’m self employed and lost my health insurance because of this con. I can’t afford it and I know 3 other people who have lost their health care as well. I’m 55 with colon cancer running in my family and I had to skip routine colonoscopys because I couldn’t afford it. How many people out of the 300 million in this country have lost their lives so far because of that kind of gamble that they are forced to take? All while these mofo SCUMBAGS in Congress and the Senate get FREE healthcare like that SCUMBAG John McCain. Look at Steve Scalise, I saw the story on him on 60 minutes last Sunday. I like the guy, but if that ever happened to me or anyone in my family, I would be finished financially and what ticks me off is ILLEGALS and PRISONERS get healthcare for FREE!

She voted to make Ryan Speaker which seems inconsistent with being in favor of reforming or changing things ‘in the swamp’.

Yes, she seems very well connected to her constituents.

Hey, we known what Corker is so I doubt we could do worse.

She will compliment the President very well.
