... am I the only person who really doesn’t get the whole cock-fighting controversy? I don’t think its a great practice, but compared to Mitch setting up amnesty, stabbing Cruz in the back, etc., it’s nothing. It wasn’t like he attended a KKK rally. Bevin was 100X better than Mitch.
Hell, Hugo Black and Robert Byrd were in the KKK, and it never materially hurt them.
Although there was a smarmy NYT piece the other day, talking about how Byrd had to apologize over and over for life ..... but the writer wasn't really talking (or lying) about Byrd, but making a point about Incorrect [as in, Tea Party] Political Speech, a la Sterling/Clippers and Paula Dean. And other victims of the Liberal Noyau (monkey screaming-chorus).
