Sen. Mitch McConnell appeared to freeze momentarily at an event in Covington, Ky. McConnell also froze in July at a news conference on Capitol Hill, going silent before being escorted away.

    he should have been allowed to conitnue

    Who is “he” that should have been “allowed”? No one has been disallowed, that I know of. Someone was voted out of office a few years ago, which is a proper procedure in a democracy.

      the law. the law should not allow it. it should be regulated. hopefully that clarifies it.

      you should also think about the possibility of someone going from smart to plant within the period they are serving an elected position.

        But what do you do when his constituents actually vote for the plant? I mean I agree as much as anyone that he is unfit for office and should not be there, but if the numbskulls in Kentucky keep saying this is the most qualified person they can come up with to represent them, who are we to deny them their political voice? We can correctly say that they must be dumber than a vegetable to elect him, but don’t they have that right?
