Make Mitch McConnell’s Life Truly Miserable



Make Mitch McConnell’s Life Truly Miserable

Whodathunk Eric Cantor would become like Mitch McConnell, but he is.

I'm funning with Red State's Erick Erickson, whose article Conservatives Are Gaining, But Need Help Making Mitch McConnell’s Life Truly Miserable warms my little heart cockles with wit, wisdom and a call to arms.

.We’re about a week out from the Indiana Primary. Richard Mourdock now leads Barack Obama’s favorite Republican, Dick Lugar. But it is close. Surprisingly for so many conservative activists who backed Eric Cantor for his leadership position, the House Republican Leader has decided to engage in this and other races for the more moderate and liberal candidates.  [...]

Seriously, Eric Cantor’s PAC is asking Democrats to go vote to save Dick Lugar. The House Republican Leader wants Democrats to save Dick Lugar. That’s messed up.

Do what you can to make sure Indiana sends Dick Lugar home. Oh wait . . . Dick doesn’t live in Indiana anymore. That’s why his Board of Elections says he can’t vote in Indiana. Still, get him out of the Senate. [Full]
But that's not all .... In Texas, Ted Cruz is going up in the polls ... In Nebraska, Don Stenberg is closing in on Jon Bruning .... And then there is Utah. After 36 years in the Senate, Orrin Hatch just might be retired by the voters. but ....

I shan't hazard a guess at what the Congress will look like in 2013, but it is my fervent hope that the Republican aisles are packed with people who hate their Democrat colleague's ideological guts,  and wish dueling was still an option.

Erick Erickson is the guy who banned any discussion of Obama's eligibility on his "Red State" website.

For that reason, I have little interest in anything he has to say. In my opinion he is attempting to exert a counter productive big-brother control attitude on others, and likewise undermine attempts to discover the truth about Barack Obama.

His position on this is not compatible with freedom of thought. That he should attempt to control what topic is being discussed by others is well within his rights as owner of the site, but it makes him philosophically kin to the Liberal control freaks we all despise.

As far as i'm concerned, he has back-stabbed his allies, and I have nothing good to say about him.

I'm not a regular Red States reader, so that explains his surprise about Cantor. The rest of this particular column does strike a right chord.

Mitch is the head of the Senate Caucus, and Lugar is an incumbent member of that caucus. Right or wrong, all caucuses protect incumbents first. It doesn't matter what kind of Lincoln Chaffee motherfucker he might be. It's about who gets to hold the reins of the Senate. Now don't watch while we throw the brains into the grinder.

The Tea Party backed Republican beat four others in the PA primary to challenge Casey for his Senate seat in November.

Cantor's "Young Guns" network is pissing off Indiana conservatives. We want RINO and octogenarian Lugar gone and Cantor is dumping mailers in the state that not only lie about State Treasurer Richard Mourdock but also encourage Dems to crossover to vote for Lugar.
