Mitch McConnell's Tea Party Opponent Endorsed By Senate Conservatives Fund

The GOP primary challenger to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) received an endorsement Friday from the Senate Conservatives Fund, a PAC founded by former Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.).

The endorsement of Kentucky businessman Matt Bevin escalates the effort by outside conservative groups to back primary challenges next year against those congressional lawmakers who finally voted for the bipartisan budget deal. On Thursday, the Senate Conservatives Fund, the Club for Growth and the Madison Project all endorsed Mississippi state Sen. Chris McDaniel, a primary challenger to Sen. Thad Cochran (R-Miss.). The Madison Project had already endorsed Bevin.

I do not know if McConnell will survive the Republican primary or not. But I do think the people of Kentucky deserve to get a Democratic Senator to represent them in the Senate. That is the best way to move Kentucky toward a better future.
