Sen. Mitch McConnell files for seventh term in Kentucky

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — Touting his leadership role as an asset for Middle America, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell filed for reelection Friday as the Kentucky Republican seeks a seventh term next year.

McConnell, the longest-serving U.S. senator in Kentucky history, has tied himself closely to President Donald Trump as he prepares to defend himself against a host of Democrats wanting to unseat him.

McConnell noted that among the four congressional leaders — the top-ranking Republican and Democratic leaders in both chambers — he's the only one from the U.S. heartland.

“What I do is look out for Middle America and, in particular, my favorite state in Middle America — Kentucky," McConnell told reporters at the state Capitol.

It just doesnt seem right in my view that you can have this person have already served 36 fucking years and he wants another 6 - 1 1/2 generations worth?!?

Id like to see an end to 'career' / lifetime politicians at some point.

Of course, the people of Kentucky keep re-electing the guy.....
