Leader McConnell: “You’ve Got A Lot More Listeners Than The Democrats Have Lobbyists”
Leader McConnell: “Sure, they’re interest groups all across America who are represented here in this town -- which they have a constitutional right to do, of course -- who are here to defend this outrageous level of spending and that’s what we’re up against here. But I would remind everybody, you’ve got a lot more listeners than the democrats have lobbyists, and the American people are expecting us to do this. We are going to give it our best shot. I think we are going to have extraordinary republican unity and the question is going be Laura, how many of the 23 democrats up in ‘12 are going to crack and come over and join us to significantly reduce spending.” (Sen. Mitch McConnell, The Laura Ingraham Show, 2/04/11)
Leader McConnell: “The American People Here Are Lobbying For Us To Reduce Spending”
Leader McConnell: “The American People Here Are Lobbying For Us To Reduce Spending. And the various interest groups who are vested in this high spending level that we’ve engaged in the last couple of years are certainly going to be heard from. They’ll make their best arguments. And I think the important thing is for us to resist all of these special interest groups who don’t want us to reduce spending.” (Sen. Mitch McConnell, The Laura Ingraham Show, 2/04/11)
