“‘I have never been an isolationist,’ McConnell will say, according to his prepared text. ‘And a vote against this resolution shouldn’t be confused by anyone as a turn in that direction. But just as the most committed isolationist could be convinced of the need for intervention under the right circumstances when confronted with a threat, so too do the internationalists among us believe that all interventions are not created equal. And this proposal just does not stand up.’  Translation: McConnell has a tough primary and general election ahead and can’t be seen as going against the will of the people.”
