McConnell's a lot more reasonable and doesn't have to answer to a bunch of backwoods teabaggers. They've absolutely ruined Boehner's credibility. He'd be better off as a fly on the wall, listening to Cantor make an ass of himself.
Oh.
Wait...
McConnell's the one who has repeatedly said his only goal is to make sure Obama is not re-elected.. BUT, he does care about the 'GOP' brand and will not allow it to be tarnished more than it already has been by the Tea-party.. so yeah, he's the one who Reid would probably have to work with..
