Article PhotoWith the subject line “I’m Still Fighting Against Obamacare,” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell laid out his record of working against President Barack Obama’s health care law in a lengthy fundraising appeal to supporters Thursday night.
In the face of attacks from a Republican primary challenger in Kentucky regarding his conservative credentials, the McConnell campaign distributed the email Thursday night — a day after the Republican leader introduced an amendment to the energy bill that would delay implementation of the individual mandate. He also reminded supporters that he led the effort in 2009 for unanimous GOP opposition to Obamacare.
“What people don’t remember, is how many Republicans were toying with the idea of voting for it,” McConnell wrote. “With your support, I worked day and night to make sure Republicans fully understood the damage this law would do to our constituents’ health care. I worked to unite conservatives.”
with all he's said and been silent on and obviously supported the republican adversarial obstruction against everything for the people, they don't mention they have done nothing for them but demonizing what they are trying to deny them so they will not feel the sting of it till it's to late
that said what do they care about what he did 4 years ago, what has he done for them lately?
Bevin and groups such as the Senate Conservatives Fund have criticized McConnell for not supporting an effort to defund the health care law. Critics of that effort have said demanding that Obamacare be defunded as part of the spending bill debate would only shut down the government, while mandatory spending on the health care law would continue.
In his fundraising appeal, McConnell explained that he has two goals: seeing Obamacare repealed and helping Republicans win the majority in 2014.
“Now, you’re probably hearing from a few people who were drinking egg-nog on Christmas Eve 2009 that fellow conservatives are the impediment to our goal of getting Obamacare off the books,” McConnell wrote. “Let me tell you that dividing fellow conservatives is the only way to ensure our defeat.”
his party waking to and excepting the fact they have been zoomed and their is no legislation pending on that side that favors them, they are trying to kill everything with no replacement programs, notice how you don't hear about the "RYAN PLAN"  anymore they were so gung ho why have they deserted it like they did Reagan when they found out he raised taxes and compromised? no heroes to point to or run for office, did the T-Party kill that too?
when his popularity is waning how is he going to do anything that helps republicans and repeal a legit law?
