Since grassroots conservatives have figured out that there is and has been a war going on, and they have started to fight back and win establishment Republicans are not only outraged, they are scared they are going to lose their power.
What a scum.
Like we didn’t know already.
Probably feels emboldened after 0 told him he has his back if he will convert to the dark side.
"A picture is worth ten thousand words.."
I really do think it’s time for a war. I wish every conservative voter would take the pledge that they will not vote for any more RINOs period.
And if that means a Democrat majority, so be it.
Republicans need to understand that if they want to win elections, they can only do it by moving drastically to principled conservatism.
Time to kill the political prospects for the entrenched so-called “moderate” Republican establishment.
“Mitch McConnell is in trouble not because he has been too conservative, but because voters dont see the difference between a big government pork barreling Republican and a big government pork barreling Democrat.”
Dead on target.
I left the republican Party more than 15 years ago for this very reason. When they call me for money I tell them I am an independent voter. The Republican caller continues to ask for money. Perhaps McConnell’s time has come.

Tortoise soup
One large pot, salted boiling water
Mitch McConnell
Box of saltines
Using sharp butcher knife, shuck turtle from shell.
Dump bloody mess in pot.
Boil for three hours.
Enjoy with fellow crackers & hobbits!
And the US Chambers of Commerce are helping him!
I think that tactic is known as Bait and Switch. Let him dare to switch parties and join all his new friends having such a ball. The moment they have his vote on something like Amnesty or a Value Added Tax (VAT( to be put on everything) they will drop him like a hot, stinky potato, thrown far out to the back pasture. Sort of like a grenade.
Senator, you are in control of the House of Representatives. It must approve all legislation, and is of equal power twith the Senate.
If it is because of the democrats, why do the unfavorable laws continue to get passed on your watch?
You cannot say no, and stick to it. You cave. You always cave.
Otherwise, Obamacare would not be funded, and many other things as well.
The problems is that you have allowed yourself to be labeled by the Democrat party as obstructionist, without actually obstructing.
You may call yourself anything you like, but you still are in charge of a House that supports Democrats, especially on the big stuff.
Shakes head, Mitch... Mitch... Mitch...
Honestly..., doesn’t break my image of establishment Republicans one bit.
I agree with you, but it would be nice to get all conservatives to agree to vote on particular good republican candidates OR on the same 3rd party alternative. It's the latter that would be of huge concern to the progressives.
The Constitution Party is a joke. It didn't even try the last election.
The Libertarians try, but they need their platform tweaked to be pro-life, pro-defense, and within reason pro-law and order.
I’ve ALREADY made that pledge. . .heck, for Congress, I’ve voted against our RINO Congresscritter since 2008. . .
And I’m not voting a RINO in 2016. Even if it’s NOT Krispy Kreme. . .
“If it is because of the democrats, why do the unfavorable laws continue to get passed on your watch?”
What laws are those ? The govt. is on a sequester and the budget never did pass. Spending is done on a continuing resolution. The Bush tax cuts were renewed for everyone under 200,000, because the alternative was the bush tax cuts would expire for everyone. Immigration reform died. Obamacare passed when the democrats had huge majorities in both houses.
Mitch just needs to switch over to being a Dem instead of a RINO
We kept working every election trusting that if we elected establishment Republicans the growth of government and the erosion of freedom would stop it didnt.
Pretty sure the actual history is more complicated than that.
