Mcconnell Re-elected 37 to 10

[White 6]

Just saw on FOX that Mitch Mcconnell will won re-election as minority leader of the Senate. Being independent, I do not care who leads the minority in that body, but thought it of interest to many of you.
Looks like the Turtle has a hard shell.

I thought so. I thought there would be more hoopla, and it would take longer to decide. Looks like the far right was not as serious as this message board seemed to project. But, of course, this message board was full of predictions of "Red Wave", which did not pan out, either.

Yeah, the red wave happened but it was stolen once again by Chavez ghost from Election Past!!!

Anyhoo, them re-electing McConnell shows that the GOP are just the Democrats Stooges and are for show only.

Time to get Libertarians and Greens elected and shake this system up a little!

You can say that again. And they wonder why they are hated by the constituents?

The real Republicans seem to be trying to take the party back. They don’t want a 4th election cycle where they lose or don’t live up to expectations. The flirtation with MAGA has to end, if they want the party to survive.

Too bad they suck too.

People who criticize Trump and blame him for decades of a weakened West seem to happily celebrate a guy who has held his seat since 1985.

Let's be candid, America is in effect, a monarchy.

They all suck but it is time to try something different because it is insane to keep on trying the same thing over and over excepting a different result!

Biden’s not everyone’s favorite, but he’s a refreshing change from a guy that’s made us look like fools around the world.

I don't have anything against Libertarians in general, as long as they don't go crazy. I voted Libertarian in the 2016. I don't know much about the Greens. Not sure they are active in TN.

Only thing about Libertarians is they can get really radical about certain things like spending and state rights but that is what we need now.

Libertarians are now Marxist-lite?

News to me…

Yes. I've seen that. That is why I said, as long as they don't go crazy. But, like you might say, a little crazy is a good thing. I am sure, there would be Democrats and Republicans of every persuasion to add balance. It is worth noting, I would suspect a good Libertarian would siphon more votes by disaffected Republicans, than Democrats, as they aren't exactly the hold out your hand, here comes the money folks.

Green Party has hurt the Democrats more than the Libertarians did the GOP in the past and I was actually thinking about creating a thread on this subject matter.

Green cost Gore and Clinton dearly in 2000 and 2016 in key States while this time in 2022 the Libertarians hurt the GOP in Nevada and Georgia, so let remember their job is not always to win but to stop a bad candidate from winning…

Rick Scott ran the numbers before announcing the challenge. He knew he wasn't going to win. He knew it wouldn't even be close.

He did it for the publicity and the messaging. Its like most Trump lawsuits: not designed to win, but to get attention.
