When Jim Bunning blocked unemployment benefits for those who lost their jobs due to the economy he helped crash, most Republicans acted like they were pretty torn.
Kentucky's Repubican Senate candidates were all for it, and stated so publicly. In the Republican leadership there seems to be a little angst. See, Republicans simply cannot afford to let the American people hear how they really feel, but deep inside they are all with Jim Bunning.
Bunning is not running for re-election and he became a useful idiot for the GOP to torpedo an extension to unemployment insurance. You can be sure Senator Minority Leader Mitch McConnell knew that Bunning would cast the single dissenting 'nay."
