MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell outlines why Mitch McConnell might not want to run for re-election to the Senate including how jealous he must be of Paul Ryan.
Why would Mitch McConnell want to run for reelection, especially when Kentucky has no gratitude for the job that he’s been doing in the Senate? Polling shows that Mitch McConnell has a 33 percent approval rating in Kentucky. Sixty-one percent of Kentucky voters say Mitch McConnell has been there too long and it’s time for someone new.
Kentucky is done with Mitch McConnell if Democrats can find the right candidate to run against him. Like possibly Amy McGrath, who lost a close election for a Kentucky House seat last year.
