EDITORIAL:
Jacob Payne over at PageOneKentucky noted that Kentucky's Mitch McConnell yesterday expressed optimism for the 2010 elections based upon Tuesday nights election of republican governors in Virginia and New Jersey. But who the hell does he think gets the benefit of those results, him?
McConnell, R-Ky., said the election results will make it more difficult for the president to convince Democrats to support a sweeping health care bill.
McConnell offered strong support for Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, the one Republican who has voted in favor of Democrats’ health care proposals to date.
“The return of the independents is extremely important. And if they’re there a year from now, we’ll have another very good election.” [ABC]
"We" who, Mitch? The republican power brokers, like yourself, who continue to support RINO's for the sake of party label only? Don't you get it? The move afoot in this nation is not based upon blind party loyalty.
The move afoot in this country is based upon a new awareness that the only loyalty that counts is a loyalty to the people and principles of this nation which have made us great. And that "we" ain't you.
I don't trust John Boehner either. The guy's from Columbus, Ohio and he has a perpetual tan for cryin out loud.

Typical behavior. Just remember the saying "A politician is someone looking for a parade to jump in front of". Certainly applies here.
