The same Mitch McConnell that brought an out of work miner to the SOTU address — and won the last election mostly due to painting his opponent as anti-coal — just a day or two after he personally asked (and got removed) a bi-partisan plan to fix miner pensions. But if you ask most of the coal workers, McConnell is still their guy.

So, no, Fred's hypothetical isn't that extreme when you consider the average voter would re-elect a potato if they thought it felt the same way they do.

So the fact that he uses typical political strategies to win support by supporting a local cause means voters will support him and everyone else if the Senate were to refuse to confirm any judges until all of them are dead?


Dude... come on.
