Similar Stories to Gop Senate Candidate Muses Aloud About 'a Wealthy Chinaperson' on Bing News

Don Blankenship, the Republican candidate for Senate in West Virginia, may want to update his outdated vocabulary. While speaking to a West Virginia radio show Monday, Blankenship referred to the father of Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao as "a wealthy Chinaperson." The comment came as Blankenship has been facing fierce opposition from Republican establishment leaders who want to see a more traditional GOP candidate in West Virginia, reports The New York Times — including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Chao's husband. Blankenship, a former coal mining executive, spent a year in prison for conspiring to violate mine safety standards and is still on parole.
