Why I Can't Stand Mitch McConnell

Summed up in a brief snippet.

“I think I'll be seeing a lot more of him in the future,” McConnell, R-Ky., said today on ABC/Washington Post’s “Top Line.” “And I think if we have a larger number of Republicans, it will hopefully move him to the political center, which is the way he{deceptively-ed}ran in '08, but not the way he's governed since then. And hopefully,  if he moves to the center or the right of center, we can to do business.”

{yeah, but remember: "I Won" is still his mindset-ed}

McConnell said there are several big areas where Republicans can work with a Democratic White House.

“We're interested in cutting spending and debt. If he becomes interested in that, I think he'll find us a willing partner,” he said. “He says he's for trade agreements. We'd like to ratify trade agreements. He says he is for nuclear power. We'd like to do that. He says he is for clean coal technology. We'd like to do that. I mean, there are areas where we'd ought to be able to work together for the good of the country.”

Yeah, like stopping him and his agenda cold and setting forth an agenda for 2012. But Get Along Mitch won't say that.

Eesh. It's shit like this that has a good part of the not Obama base angry at the Beltway Leadership. This is the idiot who didn't do a whole hell of a lot to stop Obamacare in teh Senate when he could have and should have thrown every legislaive trick out there as he could. But he didn't, for he's Get Along Mitch. And he tried to handpick some very skecthy candidates in red states and has been in DC too long.

Oh well. This tool may be the next Majority Leader. Read and despair.
