If it's a democrat they'll say:

"Phineas Phoghorn, Senator from the State of Manitscolda....."

But if it's a republican, they'll say:

"Phineas Phoghorn, arch-conservative REPUBLICAN Senator from Manitscolda, close confidant of President Bush, who once campaigned for Nixon and a global warming skeptic....." It's called "Creative Conflation" or "Joinallists' Delight".
