Politically inclined cat seeking election to the U.S. Senate

Republicans hope to regain control of the narrowly divided U.S. Senate this year, and the open seat in Virginia plays heavily into their strategic plans. But a new candidate in the race threatens to shake things up, complicating both Democratic and Republican efforts to win control: Hank the Cat.

Hank's campaign manager, Matthew O'Leary, describes the candidate's political leanings as Republican even though the cat is running as a political independent.

If not, it should be. I mean, how frigging hilarious would it be to have a cat in the U.S. Senate?
