GOP faithful brace for losses this year:

Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY . . .that's WAY too funny on many levels) is already conceding defeat for his party this November. During an interview with CNN’s Late Edition, McConnell told guest host Candy Crowley that the numbers were not in the GOP’s favor:

“We are not going to be back in the majority in the Senate next year,” said McConnell. “The numbers make that impossible.”

Senate Republicans face grim conditions heading into this election cycle - Five GOP senators are retiring this year: Sen. Wayne Allard (CO), Sen. John Warner (VA), Sen. Pete Domenici (NM), Sen. Chuck Hagel (NE), and Sen. Larry Craig (ID). Other Republicans are running in competitive elections, such as Norm Coleman (MN), who faces well-known comedian and outspoken Democrat Al Franken in November. It looks to be an especially bad year for Republicans named Mitch. . .
