McConnell's fear-mongering and whoring for the ultra wealthy disgusts me. When next he's up for election, which I think is in 2014, I shall donate to whomever his Dem opponent is, and I don't even live in KY. But to see his back going out the door will give me extreme pleasure. More than anyone else, even including Eric Cantor, McConnell is responsible for the extreme obstructionism of the GOP.
