McConnell: Obama to Become “Born-Again Moderate”

In an interview with The Hill, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said that he believes President Obama will likely become a “born-again moderate” after the November elections. “Frankly, I think how much he calls me depends on how much he thinks he needs me,” McConnell said. “I don’t blame him for that. He’s had a huge number [of Democrats] in the House and a big number in the Senate, and I’m sure calling Mitch McConnell is not the first thing on his agenda every day.” The Kentuckian, who has been a major front of opposition to Barack Obama in the Senate, said he now stands ready to work with the President, citing such issues that could be agreed upon, such as nuclear power and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
