re: WTF is the deal with Arkansas and national politics?

I have no earthly idea why, but Sen Cotton has some fanatical followers

Of course, there is still a huge contingent of people who haven't fallen for his whole dramatic routine.

He is shooting himself in the foot with this letter. No one is winning a national election with his positions.

I dont care about Harvard degree or he is "still a farmer from Dardanelle". The guy has not legislated anything, he is a granstanding politician quickly becoming a career politician. Problem is he has been job hopping so fast he hasn't been anywhere long enough to ever pass anything meaningful. Thats not leadership. Its politics as usual
