ABC news kept talking about “compromise” before the press conference. Liberals are really diseased.
Yes it is.
Mitch McConnell is now going to throw off the mask and reveal himself as the conservative he so successfully claimed to be but hid for years, or he’s going to reveal himself actually to be the unprincipled pork politician that has angered so many.
In Before The Republicans Change The Senate Rules To Favor Democrats.
He doesn’t get it!
The Republican Party was elected to stop Obama.
Not to compromise, to reach across the aisle or bipartisan fifaddle.
If that’s what McConnell thinks, he’s in need of a reality check.
Someone adult is in the room with McConnell?
Geeze no kidding. I'm thinking the election was just as much about Reid as about Obama.
Turtle an adult?
Please.
Must we keep assuming this guy will be the senate majority leader?
Don’t like him. Don’t trust him.
FUM!
I haven’t been a big fan of his, but I have to say, last night’s acceptance speech showed why he is where he is, and how he stays there. Politics at the national level is like any other profession, and there is no doubt he is a pro. They say he ran one of the best executed campaigns in recent memory for any Republican and if Romney had done the same he’d have won. So give the devil his due, Kentuckians are not stupid and McConnell is good at politics, even if we disagree on issues and policies.
This blather about how Americans want government “to get things done” is getting about as tiresome as “broken immigration system” and “living in the shadows”.
Just a bunch of generalities designed to avoid getting specific about real issues. Voters who handed the Dims a massive defeat want Congress to block Obama’s destructive agenda and stop or even reverse most all of his policies.
Let’s compromise like Pelosi did when she walked through the crowd. You can read the compromise after we pass the bill.
Pray America is waking
Now the real work begins. Making sure Mitch McConnell does NOT become the Majority Leader...
Call your Senator(s) and tell them the GOP needs new leadership! Tell them
to support someone other than McConnell for Majority Leader:

What would be great is if Senators Manchin and King (who are both being wooed to the GOP side as we speak) both said...”we’ll switch
parties only if McConnell is not the leader.” You think the GOP is
gonna vote for McConnell then? And risk losing two seats? Nope. They
will kick Mitch to the curb.
Let’s hope it happens.
If he blows this opportunity, he will have a short-lived two year run before Senate leadership changes again. If there's one thing a politician wants above all else, it's to remain in power.
Don't screw this up, Mitch!!
