The Daily Beast profiles Jesse Benton, who has been campaign manager for both Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) and Sen. Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY).
“At 36, Benton is one of few Republican operatives to have lived in both the Tea Party and establishment camps of a party that has repeatedly self-destructed over infighting and purity tests in recent years. Despised by many on both sides of that divide, Benton might well be the future of the party–someone who knows both sides, is connected throughout, and, above all, wants to win.”
