2014 A.D. — Alexander the Barely Mediocre

McConnell worries that the Senate Conservatives Fund and other insurgent groups are pursuing a confrontational, uncompromising strategy that makes it impossible for conservatives to govern.
“The Senate Conservatives Fund is giving conservatism a bad name. They’re participating in ruining the [Republican] brand,” McConnell said. “What they do is mislead their donors into believing the reason that we can’t get as good an outcome as we’d like to get is not because of a Democratic Senate and a Democratic president, but because Republicans are insufficiently committed to the cause — which is utter nonsense.”
The outside groups, in McConnell's view, are unaccountable and financially motivated and pose a threat to the Republican Party's viability. The groups in 2010 and 2012 backed a handful of untested, ideological candidates in Republican primaries that couldn't win general elections, costing the party opportunities to build a majority. It's a threat that must be addressed ahead of the 2014 and 2016 elections, McConnell said, because it's repelling the very voters the GOP needs if it's ever to take control of the federal government.

Yeah, like democrats went after Occupy?
Corker is the one we never wanted who must be replaced by a conservative.
Looks like Ole Mitch has learned the projection technique. Sorry there Ole dikweed Mitch, we’re far more onto your game than you could ever imagine, and you know it.
Desperation begets foolishness which begets disaster for you.
notice Mitch is attacking his own party because he is worried about the voters who are being “repelled” by conservatism (not those who are attracted to it)
Mitch and the Rovians continue to chase the squishy knee jerk votes by “moderates” and “independents” (like that worked so well for Romney) and assume the conservatives will come along for the ride
the squish voters who are going to vote for Hillary Rodham to “make history”, the same reason they voted for obama
Can we primary this POS already?!
The GOP-e fights backs and...................I PREDICT...........WILL LOSE BIG.
MItch McConnell wanted to FULLY FUND Obama Care. Need I say anything else?
If only he fought the Marxist party as energetically as he fights conservatives . . .
Lamar! is up in 2014. Corker is not up until 2018
