At Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell' victory party Tuesday night, a supporter held a sign above the crowd that was hard to ignore.

Hmm ... that looks familiar ...

Yup, Washington Post reporter Paul Kane noticed this sign at Fancy Farm this summer.

The evidence of how [Rand] Paul has rubbed off on the Kentucky GOP establishment could be summed up in one sign held by a young McConnell supporter: “Come at me bro.” It’s a nod to MTV’s reality show “Jersey Shore,” in which one character doesn’t want to start a fight but tells another if he initiates the fight, it will get ugly. The very idea of the 70-something incumbent having rabid supporters waving signs touting MTV pop culture is completely absurd, but only in a pre-Rand Paul world.

Not that Mitch McConnell is any stranger to things that the Internet thinks are funny, even if he usually stumbles on them accidentally. Remember McConnelling?

Actually, no needs to go back and relive the moment; we have a feeling that McConnell is going to be smiling and laughing without prompting on a loop for most of the night, given how his election turned out.

Just like this.
