“Sasse needs to choose between SCF support and making Mitch McConnell happy if he wants my support through SCF.”
Excellent point. I guess Sasse was hoping to get the support of both the SCF and the establishment. It does make you wonder. I think the SCF does a great job, but it must be admitted that they made a real mistake with Jeff Flake. I can’t say how solid Sasse is, other than the article stating that he criticized Republican leadership.
Yes I don't know why he would be voluntarily walking into McConnell's office in the first place, but after getting his ears pinned back by McConnell it would have been nice to see him quoted as saying he told Mitch to go screw himself, instead of being quoted as saying “That didn’t go well!” . After all of us including SCF being taken in by Rubio/Toomey/Flake I watch for stuff like that real close. I hope SCF has a talk with this guy before they give him any more money. Support for Sasse topped their Senate support status update email today. And here he is trying to do some smooching on McConnell's butt, and apparently getting slapped down but good by Mitch.
