The Bizarre Just Got Stranger by Tracy Knauss

Bizarre events continue to surround the U.S. Senatorial race for the state of Mississippi in which incumbent Senator Thad Cochran narrowly defeated Tea Party candidate Chris McDaniel. The latest development related to the election is that Central Mississippi Tea Party officer, Mark Mayfield, (who was arrested and charged with conspiracy for photographing Cochran's bedridden wife, Rose, at a nursing home where she suffers from progressive dementia), committed suicide. Just days before the election, Cochran said in a campaign speech that when he was growing up, he enjoyed doing "all kinds of indecent things with animals." Adding, "I know some of you know what that is." This jaw dropping statement from Mississippi's senator should cause one to question his lack of sound judgment and consider voting for his Democratic challenger, former Rep. Travis Childers, this fall.
