Opposition reseach on Mitch McConnell. Good background
on the most powerful Republican in the senate. His power comes from the purse strings.

Read this report, save the articles they may come in handy some day.

1. Don't forget he was the one running interference in the senate for Poppy on BCCI.
He has long been a BFEE hatchetman.

3. He is also the man behind Ann Northrup. He is grooming
her for governor of Kentucky. She needs to be careful though. He will drop her like a hot rock the minute things get tough. Look at how he abandoned Ernie Fletcher when the going got tough. He wouldn't even speak Fletcher's name.

2. He is an embarrassment to Kentucky.

4. Thanks. Keep the spotlight on Mitch Moneybags.


2 years left for BushCo, but McConnell is working hard to stay in power.

5. If we can defeat Ann Northrup we can score a hit against him.
See, he is already saddled with Ernie Fletcher. He is also going to be seen as the man who is standing in the way of some very popular legislation.
