Sen Pryor skips appearance with Clinton, trails Cotton in recent poll

"Sen. Pryor has a previously scheduled engagement out of town that day, so he won't be able to attend the event at the Clinton Presidential Library," said the Senators spokesperson. The event the Senator would be missing is that of Bill Clinton extolling the benefits of Obamacare. An internal poll conducted in Arkansas for the National Republican Senatorial Committee puts Congressman Tom Cotton ahead of incumbent Senator Pryor by 2 percentage points and the Senator would just as soon not remind the voters that he voted for Obamacare.
Tom Cotton could be an incredible candidate and a senate standout. He was endorsed early by the Tea Party express in his bid for congress. The freshman congressman can boast of degrees from Harvard and Harvard Law School and well as a combat military career. He was an infantry officer and platoon leader with the 101st Airborne in Iraq. He also served in Afghanistan and was awarded the bronze star.
