Wouldn’t he be smarter to figure out how to get on the list of qualified candidates instead of trying to knock Conservatives? He obviously does not belong on that list. Is there a link to that Fund?

Thanks for the reminder Mitch. It’s time to contribute to the Senate Conservatives fund. We need to increase the absolute number of conservatives in the House as well as their percentage of the Republican caucus. We are getting very close to having the “critical mass” needed for Tea Party conservatives to take over leadership of the House Republican caucus as well as the House itself.

The Senate Conservative fund will help send conservative reinforcements into the Senate to add to those already there such as Ted Cruz. When Republicans take over the Senate after the 2014 election, it will be nice if conservatives are VERY well represented.

I guess it depends on your definition of the word “Republican.”

Nothing on the face of this earth is hurting the republican party like Mitch McConnell, John McCain, Orrin Hatch, Lindsey Graham and other RINO’s who are in bed with the Democrats.

Real Republicans are not fond of being sold out by these Republicrats.

"Had we been talking Obamacare during that 16 days, instead of people being consumed with the shutdown," McConnell said in the interview, "we'd probably have a generic party ballot lead right now."

Well, Mitch. It's your failure that the party apparatchiks weren't obsessing over Obamacare in those 16 days, and instead were obsessing over the shutdown of your precious federal government.

I detest Washington insiders, some more than others.

The reality is that Ted Cruz time after time and hour after hour during his filibuster catalogued the almost endless deficiencies in Obamacare.


Exactly. The problem was minority “leader” McConnell didn’t talk about anything for 16 days of the shutdown. He was hiding under his desk and waiting for the right moment to stab conservatives in the back. That’s not how you win elections.

About Senate Conservatives Fund

Electing true conservatives to the U.S. Senate

SCF is a grassroots organization dedicated to electing strong conservative leaders to the United States Senate. We do not support liberal Republicans and we're not affiliated with the Republican Party or any of its campaign committees.

SCF seeks to bring bold conservative leadership to Washington by supporting candidates who have the courage to fight for the timeless conservative principles of limited government, strong national defense, and traditional family values.

Our goal is to enact policies that will restore America's greatness. Therefore, we only support candidates who have the courage to:

  • Stop Spending
    Congress must be forced to cut spending. SCF candidates support a constitutional amendment to balance the federal budget without raising taxes.
  • Repeal ObamaCare
    President Obama's health care takeover is set to destroy American medicine and bankrupt our country. SCF candidates support the full repeal of this dangerous law.
  • Enforce Immigration
    The federal government has failed to enforce our nation's immigration laws. SCF candidates support real border enforcement and oppose amnesty.
  • Defend the 2nd Amendment
    The 2nd Amendment protects our freedom to keep and bear arms. SCF candidates oppose all efforts to eliminate or restrict this right.
  • Ban Bailouts
    Bailouts force taxpayers to reward failure and punish success. SCF candidates oppose bailouts and believe corporations should be forced to compete.
  • End Earmarks
    Congressional earmarks are a gateway drug to higher spending. SCF candidates support a permanent ban on earmarks to break Washington's addiction to pork.
  • Protect Life
    Americans should not be forced to fund activities they find morally objectionable. SCF candidates oppose taxpayer funding for abortion.


SCF helps candidates by raising support from thousands of freedom-loving Americans across the country, and by running hard-hitting radio and television ads.

SCF members live in every state and come from all walks of life. They love America and don't want to see liberal policies destroy it. SCF members know that change in Washington means changing the people we send there, and they know that building a conservative majority in the U.S. Senate is critical to saving our country.

ALL legitimate polling shows that the dims and republicans share in equal blame for the shutdown. No one really gave a damn but gubmint employees.

Mitch, Mitch, Mitch...Honey Boo Boo...you are a RINO. You aren't a conservative or a “Republican” [or even close to a TEA Party person]. I have never heard such sniveling, whining, and crying from a man who's supposedly the Minority Leader of the Senate. With the spineless, gutless, and clueless leadership of Mitch McConnell, the dear man could not lead a group of randy gays through a male bath house with a wad of $1,000 bills and a wallet full of credit cards.

Go Matt Biven!!

Matt Bevin DONATE

Matt Bevin is a constitutional conservative who will fight to stop the massive spending, bailouts, and debt that are destroying our country. He isn't afraid to stand up to the Washington establishment and he will do what it takes to stop Obamacare, cut spending, and get the government off our backs. Matt Bevin is an exceptional candidate. He's principled, passionate, and has Ted Cruz-like courage.

Chris McDaniel DONATE

Chris McDaniel is a constitutional conservative who will fight to stop Obamacare, balance the budget, and get America working again. Chris McDaniel is not part of the Washington establishment and he has the courage to stand up to the big spenders in both parties. He's a principled leader who will make Mississippi proud.

Ben Sasse DONATE

Ben Sasse is a strong conservative with a proven record of solving difficult problems. He's an expert on health care policy and will help repeal Obamacare and enact free-market health care policies that lower costs and increase quality. There are other good candidates in this race, but Ben Sasse stands above the rest. He's smart, principled, and he's not afraid to tackle tough issues.

Rob Maness DONATE

House Conservatives Project

The House Conservatives Project is an initiative of the the Senate Conservatives Fund that promotes principled candidates for the U.S. House of Representatives. The goal of the project is to provide political support to outstanding leaders in Congress so they can advance conservative policies in the House and potentially run for the U.S. Senate in the future.

Jim Bridenstine DONATE

U.S. Rep. Jim Bridenstine (R-OK) is one of the strongest conservatives in Congress. In 2012, he challenged and defeated an establishment RINO in the Republican primary. After winning election, he cast his first vote against John Boehner for Speaker and has already helped lead important fights against Obamacare funding and new Internet taxes.
