Days after lauding McConnell, Democratic leaders rip him
By Bob Cusack - 07/30/11
Four days after publicly praising Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.), Senate Democratic leaders are now ripping him.
The Democrats' comments about McConnell at an impromptu press conference late Friday night signaled an about face from what they were saying about him earlier in the week. The shift also represents the schizophrenic nature of the debt-limit debate, where both Democrats and Republicans have changed positions and strategies on multiple occasions.
The top three Senate Democratic leaders took turns criticizing McConnell Friday night amid the stalemate on raising the nation's debt limit.
Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said, "It's a shame. We waited all day, [Friday] morning, Sen. Reid went up to Sen. McConnell on floor and said, 'Let's talk. Let's work this out.' Nothing, nothing all day long. Not all day long. And later, at the end of the day, a call from Sen. McConnell who said, 'I'm not going to negotiate with you.' That's unfortunate. The American people deserve better."
On Monday, when Democratic leaders were calling Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) an obstructionist, they lauded McConnell.
