It’s bad enough to be in the minority. But what if the
minority won’t fight?
Erick Erickson at RedState.com takes on Minority Leader Mitch
McConnell for a history of folding:
Allow me to be blunt:
There are some of you who have fallen under McConnell’s spell
in the same way the lefties have fallen under Obama’s spell.
McConnell can do no wrong.
You all wet your pants when McConnell publicly rebukes Reid and
engage in private actions that might cause you to go blind
behind closed doors in the bathroom to his floor statements
against defunding the war.
The idea that Mitch McConnell is protecting us from the
Democrats is bullcrap. We should collectively rip off his
jaw and shovel the crap back down his throat that he’s been
serving us.
Erickson adds a dozen examples of McConnell surrenders. It
makes for depressing reading.
Michelle Malkin joins in the McConnell-bashing.
All this and we’re only in the first week of the new era.
Conservatives should never forget that before
the Republican Party can become part of the solution it
has to stop being part of the problem.

What if the problem is the incoming administration?

I'm so glad someone has finally said this. Now Hugh Hewitt can read and weep and shut up already about the doddering McConnell. He's not a has-been; he's a never-was, and is a pushover for anybody to spank off the stage into Trent Lott's corner.

Saying this in what is effectively a teapot, among the very low percentage of the public that are political junkies IS NOT ENOUGH! We are a bunch of wonks, and these sites, like RedState (which has been too tame for my taste anyway) and Spectator and HumanEvents, and American Thinker, etc. on their very best day gets notice from a minute portion of even regular GOP voters.
Unless the jawjacking pundits speaking [like RINOs]for the rest of us on TV and in print are not roundly denounced DAILY, in detail, the GOP is dead.
Unless a whole lot more Republican conservatives start making REAL moves to leave the reservation the lame-brained traitors representing us are going to continue to collaborate with the enemy.

It is not enough just to threaten the money supply at the RNC either, which, once it is cut off ceases to be a threat anymore. That money has to be turned toward a conservative alternative (NO, NOT Libertine- er, Libertarian) that will be a real possibility.
