Mitch McConnell Wants Kentucky Senate Race to Focus on Obamacare Woes,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
In a candid moment, McCOnnell told reporters that was all that he wanted to discuss at Tuesday's press conference even in the face of polling numbers that show his popularity waning and that the Kentucky race is tightening.
"Im probably not going to be answering questions about anything else, but Im happy to respond to questions about Obamacare," McConnell said. "As some of you have complained from time to time that I dont do a stake out after every event and Im not going to do a stake out after every event because as you can imagine I prefer the news of that day to be what Id like for it to be rather than what you all may be interested in pursuing."
