By now you’re well acquainted with the Left’s demagoguery vis-à-vis Koch Industries. To the surprise of no one, Charles and David Koch have borne the brunt of the Senate Majority Leader’s endless and incoherent bromides on the Senate floor in recent months, in which he has branded both brothers a threat to our democracy. But while the hits keep on coming -- literally -- Democrats find themselves in a rather unfortunate position. As it turns out, lots of prominent Democrats have accepted campaign contributions on behalf of Koch Industries, including in a roundabout way the Senate Majority Leader himself:
Parting question: no one has smeared the Koch brothers more tirelessly than Harry Reid. But will other Democrats join the party? I see at least two red state Senate Democrats on this list that are up for re-election in the fall. Will they repudiate the Left’s newest below-the-belt campaign strategy -- as Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) has done -- or embrace it?
Let the speculation begin.
