Excerpt:
But it was the feast of political insults that drew hundreds to a shed nearby, where Senator Mitch McConnell and challengers on his left and right participated in a venerable Kentucky tradition — the annual Fancy Farm picnic, where candidates hurl mocking one-liners while trying to keep their composure in the face of yelling, sign-pumping hecklers.
This year’s event, on Saturday, was especially raucous because Mr. McConnell’s bid for a sixth term in 2014 has drawn viable opponents on either flank, as well as national attention.
