“This is a bad place to have a personal vendetta, I can tell you that.”

If a couple of hillbillies got into a big enough pissing match over their two beloved college teams, you could expect blood to be spilt.

That’s not quite how it goes when such folk happen to be members of the United States Senate (h/t Dr. Saturday), probably because liquor isn’t involved.  But it’s close.

    Partisan divisions on Capitol Hill being what they are, isn’t this basically a case of, “No fair, he stabbed me in the back before I could stab him in the back first”?

    And yet, as TennesseeDawg said, both of these guys are sure to be re-elected by massive margins.

    The political rancor is out of control now a days.

    Did you hear Dan Quayle shot and killed Robert Rubin in a duel at Weehawken?

    Yeah, a former VP shot and killed a former Treasury Secretary over a personal dispute. Outrageous.

    It’s Rupert Murdoch’s fault of course.
