McConnell complains about the Bush 'burden' on the GOP
WTF? Did we not see Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) bleating the party line and defending the former Dear Leader every step of the way during his eight-year reign of terror? Now the catty claws come out as Miss Mitch has to find a way to rewrite the history that has sent his party and the nation’s economy into the toilet. This is rich.
Q: How does this party turn itself around?
McCONNELL: Well, I was a strong supporter of the President, but presidential unpopularity is bad for the president’s party. We suffered losses in 06 and 08. We wish President Bush well. But frankly, we will not have to be carrying that sort of political burden that we carried the last two elections.
