What would prompt me?
Maybe this:
The Daily Caller has learned that Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul is endorsing Sen. Mitch McConnell for re-election in 2014, ending speculation that Paul would back a tea party challenge to the Senate minority leader.
“Rand Paul has endorsed McConnell,” Jesse Benton, McConnell’s 2014 campaign manager, told The Daily Caller.
Maybe “top supporters” was a bit strong. But I was just saying that it’s not like Rand Paul hasn’t supported any establishment types or played the same games everyone else does.
I will chalk the endorsement up to no other alternative. Unfortunately I don’t think anyone will run against Mitch.
During the primary McConnell was the second greatest obstacle for Paul to overcome.
When it comes down to holding your nose and endorsing McConnell over the only competition he’s likely to see, his democratic opponent, I guess I’m one of McConnell’s top supporters too.
