Is it really a coincidence that Hatch’s first-ever email newsletter came out three days after Bennett’s defeat?
Last week, Utah’s Republican delegates 
denied Senator Bob Bennett the Republican nomination despite efforts over the past several months to move hard to the right . Utah’s other senator, Orrin Hatch, claimed that this upset did not scare him ; he’s confident that he’ll do fine when he’s up for reelection in two years.
I don’t believe him.
Today, I received Senator Hatch’s first-ever email newsletter to constituents in my mailbox. I’m not sure how I ended up on his mailing list. I sure didn’t give him my email address. But if you look at the contents of his newsletter, you can see that he’s trying hard to shore up his conservative credentials. The screenshot (click to enlarge) below shows only part of the newsletter, but it’s filled with references to Tea Party favorites like Glenn Beck, Greta Van Susteren, Fox News, the Wall Street Journal, and so on.
