    Mitch McConnell: "We're all behind" Mitt Romney

    http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_1...d-mitt-romney/

    Just hours after House Speaker John Boehner threw his support behind presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, Mitch McConnell, the Senate Minority Leader from Kentucky, added his own endorsement to the pile.

    McConnell, speaking to reporters Tuesday, said "we're all behind" Romney.

    "I support Governor Romney for President of the United States and he is going to be the nominee," he said. "If you've noticed, the party is in the process of unifying behind him. And I think it's going to be an incredibly close, hard fought race."

    He added: "I think it's going to be a very, very competitive election. We're all behind him and looking forward to the fall campaign, which is actually already underway."

    Not all of us, Mitch, not all.

    the 'take one for the team' speeches by both McConnell and Boehner go elsewhere. I'm thinking the trash can, but I'll likely put it into opposing candidates, eventually.

    Kill it with fire as far as I'm concerned.

    "We're all behind McCain."

    -Mitch McConnell, 2007

    Anyone but, Paul is a victory for Obama. Not only will a lot of us NOT vote for any of these Republican Status Quo candidates, but, neither will the independents and disaffected Democrats that would willingly rally behind Dr. Paul. They don't get it. Romney CANNOT beat Obama. (Unless they rig the voting machines).

    There is a bit of deja vu to it, isn't there?

    Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., today endorsed Arizona Sen. John McCain for president.

    "He's certainly going to be our nominee. I'm proud to support him," McConnell told reporters, according to Roll Call, a newspaper that covers Congress.

    This came not long after former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney suspended his presidential campaign today, essentially clearing the way for McCain to claim the Republican nomination ....

    I guess they like the choreography.

    What the heck do these people even see in Mitt Romney? Why are these people okay with the NDAA?

    Maybe he means he is out the door right behind Oromney after he loses the nomination?

    Well, I called the senator's office to ask that he please don't speak for me, or for my entire state of California for that matter, or Texas, as we haven't even voted. I told them I was extremely offended by his remarks. Phone: (202) 224-2541 Urgh!!!!

    So let me get this straight, we now support the guy who lost to the guy who lost last time to beat the guy who beat the guy who beat this guy last time?

    As a Kentuckian, I want to personally apologize for giving the country Mitch McConnell. I am trying everything I can to get more Rand Pauls and Thomas Massies elected.

    Sorry again...

    Mitt Romney has had good poll numbers in Utah.
    He might be sent to D.C in less than two weeks.
