If Mitch McConnell wants Republicans elected he should support Matt Bevin-Erick Erickson

11/8/13, "A Question for Mitch McConnell: Will Any Reporter Ask It?" By: Erick Erickson, RedState.com

"Mitch McConnell and his merry band of lobbyists have a clever little line attacking the Senate Conservatives Fund. They claim the Senate Conservatives Fund (“SCF”) has gotten more Democrats elected than the Democratic National Committee.

It’s their favorite attack these days, now that attacking SCF for raising money has proved fruitless given that this particular attack is being made by dandified lobbyists and other hangers on.

But reporters, if they are not lazy, will need to ask a question.

The Senate Conservatives Fund has only helped nominate two Tea Party candidates who went on to lose the general election. 

In Delaware, a week before the primary with Christine O’Donnell up double digits against Mike Castle, SCF endorsed her. She went on to lose the general.

In Colorado, SCF endorsed Ken Buck who barely lost to the Democrat in a year the Colorado GOP completely imploded, the NRSC diverted resources to help his opponent in the primary, and then the NRSC poured an overabundance of resources into trying to win California.

That’s it. Again, the Senate Conservatives Fund has only helped nominate two Tea Party candidates who went on to lose the general election. 

On the other hand Mitch McConnell supported 

1. Rick Berg, [in North Dakota where Romney won by 19.6 points]
2. Denny Rehberg, [in Montana where Romney won by 13.7 points].
3. Carly Fiorina, 
4. Linda McMahon, 
5. George Allen, and 
6. Tommy Thompson.

All lost to Democrats.

More so, had McConnell won the primaries where he fought the Senate Conservatives Fund, we would now have a Republican Conference composed of 

Senators Specter (assuming he was still alive), 
Crist, 
Dewhurst, 
Bennett, and 
Grayson.

So some enterprising reporter should ask Mitch McConnell this question: given that the Senate Conservatives Fund has a better record than Mitch McConnell of getting Republicans elected to the Senate, 

shouldn’t he be supporting Matt Bevin?" via Mark Levin twitter

More on Colorado: GOP works to get Democrats elected in Colorado: 

Richard Fernandez posts Subotai comment:

"I have seen the (GOP Ruling Class) Institutionals in Colorado actively work to elect Democrats when the Conservative/TEA Party/Patriot Movement managed to follow the rules and duly nominate one of their own.  

We have two Democrat US Senators, and a Democrat Governor based on that; 

and they have tried to rig the game to remove a multiple term Conservative Congressman who sits on a key committee for the state and replace him with a candidate who literally said that he looked forward to reaching across the aisle and working with the [then] Democrat majority."...

Comment: It's fine if GOP personnel like Democrat ideology. They simply need to immediately file paperwork changing their party affiliation to democrat. The US currently has only one functioning political party. A country with only one political party is a dictatorship.
