Mitch McConnell Urged By Tea Party To Step Aside In 2014

A tea party-affiliated group is urging Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) to bow out of his reelection bid next year against Democratic rival Kentucky Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes, citing concerns with the longtime senator's electability.

Matt Hoskins, the Senate Conservatives Fund's executive director, told the Washington Post Tuesday that McConnell isn't a strong enough candidate to face off against Grimes and that it may be time for him to "pass the torch."

“Mitch McConnell is now the least electable Republican senator running for reelection in 2014,” Hoskins said. "He could lose this race and cost Republicans the majority. He needs to consider whether it might be time to hang it up.”

The Senate Conservatives Fund is a political action committee launched by former Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) prior to the 2010 elections.

Last month, the PAC swiped McConnell over the Senate's comprehensive immigration reform bill, mounting a $50,000 television and radio ad campaign attacking the Republican for supporting "amnesty" for undocumented immigrants.

Grimes, who assumed office in 2012, announced Monday that she would challenge McConnell in next year's Senate race. She is the only Democrat to jump in the race so far.

A poll conducted in May by the Senate Majority PAC, a Democratic super PAC, showed McConnell and Grimes tied in a hypothetical matchup.

COMMENT :

Commenter  opined that this senator under discussion is a collection of  filth and does not deserve to be a senator meaning strongly that he is not fit to be a public leader in any sense of the term. The record proves that he is  along with the Speaker and house leader all Jews are working against the general interest of the Americans. 

They went to the extent of Conspiring with the Presidential Candidate to make sure the extinction of 47% of American middleclass and poor. Over and above this filthy House leader  son of a kicked out Foreigner from EU country by Hitler had the guts to call the middleclass and poor as liabilities of American nation and included in their cospiracy to do away of them from the world.

The Leader of the group is this old criminal Mitch MacConnel the Minority  leader of the Senate and the Speaker and House leader  all these three of them have lost the right to remain in the US politics and need immediately to be kicked out.
