Jon Tester, U.S. Senator

A couple days back, I highlighted a video of Senator Burns taking a nap during a committee hearing on the farm bill in Great Falls. The video is everywhere, including the AP wire.

When Republican Sen. Conrad Burns briefly struggled to keep his eyes open at a Montana farm bill hearing Thursday, a state Democratic party operative was right there filming it.

Within hours, the tape of Burns was on YouTube.com, set to “Happy Trails to You.”

For the record, the video has been viewed by over 30,000 people, and is the fourth most linked video this week in its category.
