More Mitch!
By 
The latest in my series at the Diplomat on Kentucky and the APAC takes a look at Mitch:
Kentucky is blessed (or cursed) with a very interesting pair of Senators. Rand Paul, with his outspoken foreign policy views and willingness to filibuster, grabs many of the headlines. His senior colleague, however, has much more influence over the course of U.S. foreign policy. Mitch McConnell has served as Kentucky’s Senator since 1985. He has acted as the Senate Majority Leader since January, moving up from the Minority Leader position in the wake of the GOP’s victories in the 2014 midterms. No one has ever accused Mitch McConnell of having “flash,” but he’s widely regarded as one of the most powerful men in Washington.
