    The leaders of several conservative groups called Wednesday for Mitch McConnell to step down as Senate majority leader, arguing the Kentucky Republican and the rest of his team should be ousted from their posts because they have not implemented the conservative agenda they promised.

    “We call on all five members of the GOP Senate leadership to step down, or for their caucus to remove them as soon as possible,” Ken Cuccinelli, the former attorney general of Virginia who now leads the Senate Conservatives Fund, said at a Wednesday press conference on Capitol Hill.

    All the leaders come from anti-Republican establishment organizations with ties to the Tea Party movement. They have long been thorns in McConnell’s side and have backed conservative challengers to Republican incumbents in Senate races. They include representatives from FreedomWorks, the Tea Party Patriots and For America.

    McConnell has got to go. Timing is terrible, however, with tax cuts and tax reform looming. I guess better late than never.

    Yeah. He is worthless. He can't push anything through.

    We agree on this one. McConnell has never done anything worthwhile. His only accomplishments have been to block and frustrate the legislative process. He also lied to the needy in KY telling them he would repeal Obamacare but they could keep their insurance. The problem is their insurance was Obamacare by another name.
