Therapist: Thad, let's play a word association game. If I say sheep, what comes to mind?

Mississippi Sen. Thad Cochran, who is facing the fight of his political life in a run off election against state senator Chris McDaniel, has admitted to some unexplained youthful indiscretion involving animals.
Touting his strong ties to the area near Pine Bluff, which turned out heavily for McDaniel in the June 3 GOP primary, the 76 year-old Cochran said that he used to play in the countryside as a child.
And that’s not all.
He did “all kinds of indecent things with animals,” he said, according to the Hattiesburg American.
It’s an odd remark in an already bizarre campaign.
Several McDaniel supporters were involved in a plot to take a picture of Cochran’s ailing wife in her residence at a nursing home. And on the night of the June 3 runoff, other McDaniel supporters were found locked inside of the courthouse where votes were being tallied.
Cochran addressed those incidents in his remarks on Tuesday, the Hattiesburg American reported.
Cochran campaign spokesman Jordan Russell downplayed Cochran’s comment about his youthful whimsies with animals.

Just ewwwwwwww...........
I’m incredulous that someone would even share such a despicable piece of information with another human in strictest confidence, but to say it publicly is wacky. Even wackier when you consider it’s being said in the middle of a campaign.
Just wait until I get my hands on some good stills from the old 70’s Spiderman cartoon.
Actually that might be “Ewe” instead of “Ewwww”...
but hey who are we to judge? ;)
Ba! Yubnub!
I’m having Welsh jokes on this....
“Not exactly doing a lot to dispel any unfortunate Southern stereotypes.”
No it doesn’t. He is buying in to the new and politically correct minstrel show script, where red lipped Black Sambo’s replacement is flat headed, beetle browed Bubba. In a way he is auditioning for a new Honey Boo Boo show.
That alone is reason for electorally bug stomping this pitiful relic.
We have to cut Cochran some slack. He probably saw how successful Joni Earnst was talking about castrating pigs, he figured he could save his seat using the same strategy.

It’s not a sheep it’s my Daaaaddd.
My guess is that he will try to twist it into something about hunting, haw haw, just playin’ to the rubes he hopes, like Romney’s alleged epiphany about ‘cheesy grits’.
Animals? It sounds like an endorsement for obama’s army.
Vacant eyes. He is someone’s stage prop.
I want an armband, please.
LolL ,That is Funny!
or dog killing, like the son of Huckabee ...
They were handing them out in Kiev for months. I am not sure who is paying for them now.
That might well be. I think most politicians have a degree of sociopath running through them.
