Five Weeks remain until May 20th 2014

Arguably the most important date, heck – the most important 12 hours, in the entire 2014/2016 election season.   May 20th is the Kentucky GOP Primary vote.

Between the hours of 6:00am and 6:00pm EST the Republic will be determined

Many people are focused on November 2014 and beyond.  However, in my analysis and opinion the Kentucky primary will determine the entire construct of the political landscape for 2014 and well beyond to the Presidential race of 2016.

Grass roots party candidate Matt Bevin faces GOP Establishment Mitch McConnell.
(more…)

I could actually make a solid argument that Mitch McConnell is actually a BIGGER danger because at least with Obama you know in advance what he supports, McConnell tries to hide it to retain his power.
McConnell and the CoC fully support:

♦  Comprehensive immigration reform to include amnesty.
♦  Common Core federal educational standards.
♦  ObamaCare – Or The federal delivery of uniform mandated healthcare to all citizens.

“I told you at the very beginning what this administration tries to do you and what the progressives on the right, let me tell you something, Mitch McConnell is as big of a danger to this country as Barack Obama is. The progressive disease is in both parties. Big government is a philosophy in both parties, period. It is antithetical to the American system. Period.”  (link)

Mitch McConnell is the personification of what will lead to a third party.   If McConnell wins his primary next month you will see a radical shift in political discussion from me.
ps.  Two weeks ago the Tea Party Patriot organization joined team Matt Bevin to assist in the removal of Mitch McConnell.

By now you might have noticed that Texas Governor Rick Perry endorsed Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell in his re-election bid.   You might have also heard his endorsement was during the Kentucky Lincoln/Reagan Dinner.   But did you hear that McConnells opponent, Matt Bevin, was also present and NOT allowed to speak ?
Such is the state of the Establishment Republicans, the “Decepticons”, fear.   You think the BIG R’s speak for freedom – they don’t.

Back in the summer of 2011 as the 2012 candidates were aligning/positioning for a potential run, a meeting was held in Colorado with the Koch Brothers et al, the Decepticons,  the Big Money Donors and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce folk including Tom Donohue.
Governor Rick Perry was the group’s hand selected man of choice.  His presence was unpublicized and somewhat mysterious.   In his home state there were questioning reports of his whereabouts.   That was 2011.
Fast forward to 2014 and it is any surprise the Decepticons and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce / Tom Donohue would not leverage ‘their man’ to assist their agenda ?   Actually, it shows just how desperate they are to retain power.   They wouldn’t even permit Matt Bevin to speak at the dinner.   THINK ABOUT IT.
Is that FREEDOM, or FEAR ?

GAME ON, DIRTBAG !

WASHINGTON DC – Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) believes that incumbent Republicans won’t have a problem holding their seats in the 2014 elections.

“I think we are going to crush them everywhere,” McConnell said about Tea Party challengers in a New York Times interview published Saturday. “I don’t think they are going to have a single nominee anywhere in the country.”

All you need to know about CPAC politics is to see Mitch McConnell in attendance.

NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. — Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell gave retiring  Sen. Tom Coburn a musket to thank him for his service, while training his  rhetorical fire on President Barack Obama during Thursday’s session of the  Conservative Political Action Conference.

Kentucky, please support Matt Bevin because one face is better than two!

Mitch McConnell said two weeks ago on Fox News Sunday the GOP would attach demands to a debt ceiling vote:

“We ought to attach something significant for the country to [Obama’s] request to increase the debt ceiling,” McConnell said. “That’s been the pattern for fifty years, going back to the Eisenhower administration. I think it’s the responsible thing to do for the country. I think he’s the one being irresponsible by saying, ‘Oh, just raise the debt ceiling. We’re not going to do anything about the debt or anything else that’s important to the country.'”

Yet, when the time came to actually deliver on fiscal restraint, it was Mitch McConnell who led the Senate Chamber to give Obama a blank check and raise the debt limit with no fiscal restraint and no demands.   And if you don’t like that, if you oppose him, Mitch says “bring it on”…  I will not be defied.

WASHINGTON DC – On Tuesday, the Senate Conservatives Fund called for the ouster of House Speaker John Boehner. Now the SCF, originally founded by Sen. Jim DeMint and run by a close DeMint associate, has launched the harshest attack yet on its No. 1 target, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. The SCF likens McConnell’s leadership of the Senate to Internal Revenue Service harassment of conservatives. (CONTINUE READING)

In the final analysis the intellectually honest observer would admit the GOP and the Democrats are generally aligned in favor of government control of Healthcare and Immigration, ie. amnesty.

In a recent New York Times article titled “Chastened G.O.P. Tries to Foil Insurgents at Primary Level” you find a typical narrative; Tea Party is EXTREME and GOP is moderate. Searching for an outlier to use as representative Tea Party imagery the Times select Virginian whacko Richard H Black to broad stroke conservatives, while framing ‘moderation’ as the best political course.

Nothing is more annoying than the constant drumbeat to connect outliers in the Alinsky-ization of grass roots concern. Isolate, Ridicule and Marginalize. Then wash, rinse, repeat.

What the GOP fear more than defeat against democrats is losing internal power over Big Business and Big Government. Establishment class Republicans, like those found inside the rolls of the Chamber of Commerce, will fight for their own power hungry ideology with a desperate intent.

(Times Excerpt) […] In House and Senate races across the country, many of the traditional and influential centers of power within the party are taking sides in primaries, overwhelming challengers on the right with television ads and, in some cases, retaliating against those who are helping the insurgents. In Mr. Black’s case, one by one, powerful Republicans started backing his rival, Barbara J. Comstock, a member of the State House of Delegates. First Mitt Romney endorsed her. Then came Citizens United and the president of Americans for Prosperity, the group financed by the wealthy Koch brothers. (more…)

Will be outlining some particulars tomorrow about a specific Treehouse movement / objective in Kentucky.    We have been conversing with some young and energetic boots on the blue-grass ground and much organization is still to be worked out.

However, I am in discussions to blitz a message in March and April.   The theme is:

“Smidgens of Kentucky Unite”

The sub message is:

“DITCH MITCH”

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to come up with quick catch phrases around the *PRIMARY Theme* “Smidgens of Kentucky Unite”; which can/will be expanded to “Smidgens of America Unite” for 2014 primaries beyond Kentucky.

Conceptually using the negative emotion toward the IRS, the negative emotion toward dismissiveness, and reinforcing a righteous outrage. (more…)

A new Rasmussen poll shows McConnell stuck in a 42% to 42% tie with Alison Lundergan Grimes (D-KY).

This is an extremely weak position for a Republican in Kentucky who is universally known, and it’s not likely to improve. More money has already been spent in favor of McConnell and against Grimes yet McConnell remains frozen in the low 40s.

This is exactly why we have been calling on him to retire for over a year.

If Mitch McConnell is the Republican nominee, he will lose the general election and cost Republicans the seat.

McConnell will also force the party to spend millions trying to save him — money that could otherwise be spent winning seats in other states. (more…)
