Mississippi Sen. Thad Cochran, who is facing the fight of his political life in a run off election against state senator Chris McDaniel, has admitted to some unexplained youthful indiscretion involving animals.
Touting his strong ties to the area near Pine Bluff, which turned out heavily for McDaniel in the June 3 GOP primary, the 76 year-old Cochran said that he used to play in the countryside as a child.
And that’s not all.
He did “all kinds of indecent things with animals,” he said, according to the Hattiesburg American.
It’s an odd remark in an already bizarre campaign.
Several McDaniel supporters were involved in a plot to take a picture of Cochran’s ailing wife in her residence at a nursing home. And on the night of the June 3 runoff, other McDaniel supporters were found locked inside of the courthouse where votes were being tallied.
Cochran addressed those incidents in his remarks on Tuesday, the Hattiesburg American reported.
Cochran campaign spokesman Jordan Russell downplayed Cochran’s comment about his youthful whimsies with animals.

Who has Mississippi been electing for all these decades!
Holy expletive, Batman!
Further evidence that Thad needs to retire. His experation date has come and gone.
“Squeal like a pig”
Uhhhhhh....what?................
Not surprising, he's an ole miss puke.
He’s like a less energetic version of Biden. His brain is asleep on the porch and his mouth is wandering around town lost.
I don’t write the stories. I just post ‘em!
Stump breaking a cow?.............
Mississippi, is this the best you could do for 36 years?
“But I only picked the prettiest ones”
Well, it is the South!! Ever see Deliverance!!
He thinks he’s connecting with the yahoos. Poor, befuddled old coot.
I grew up in Hickory Flat, MS in the 60’s....................
Paints the senility picture beautifully.
Well ,.. that explains the two-headed sheep , with NO BRAIN !!
But what does his wife say ?
IMO he is mentioning this now because someone was about to spill the beans. Not sure how that was keep secret so long but he must have ticked off some good ol boys down there
This guy really needs to just fade away. To say he’s just a bit senile is very generous.
The fact that the Establishment GOP keeps pushing this guy and trashing McDaniel is very telling.
