Nothing Changes in the Swamp: McConnell Loses Senate, Keeps Job
16 Nov 2022
After committing unforgivable political malpractice by refusing to back GOP Senate candidates who could have won, particularly in Arizona and Alaska, Mitch McConnell said he has the votes to remain GOP leader in the Senate. All we hear from our base is how annoyed they are with him and he’s got the votes?

Mitch McConnell had one job — and he didn’t get it done.
