 A man alleged to be the campaign manager for senator Mitch McConnell said earlier this year that he was "sort of holding [his] nose" to work for the Kentucky Republican for the next two years. 
 
 Economic Policy Journal has an audio recording of a January 2013 phone call purportedly between Dennis Fusaro of the Reformed Theological Seminary and Jesse Benton, the former spokesman for Ron Paul's presidential campaigns and currently campaign manager for McConnell. Benton, who is also married to Paul's granddaughter, apparently tells Fusaro that he is working for McConnell's campaign to help the other Kentucky senator, Rand Paul, in his 2016 presidential bid. 
 
 "Between you and me I'm sort of holding my nose for two years because what we're doing here is going to be a big benefit for Rand in 2016," the voice alleged to be Benton's says. "That's my long vision." 
 
 Fusaro seems to have initiated the call, recorded on January 9, to ask Benton about allegations that Ron Paul's deputy campaign manager had paid an Iowa state legislator to support the Paul presidential campaign. On the recording, Benton denies being involved in paying the legislator. 
 
 An email to Benton has not yet been returned. 
 
 Update: In a phone conversation, Fusaro confirms to THE WEEKLY STANDARD that the call is between himself and Benton. He says both he and Benton were in "one-party consent" states--meaning only one person on the phone is required to consent to a conversation being recorded. 
 
 Fusaro, a former Ron Paul campaign aide, says he waited six months to release the audio because he wanted Benton to "do the right thing" with regard to the allegations the Paul campaign paid Iowa state legislator Kent Sorenson. 
 
 "He's incapable of doing the right thing," said Fusaro.
– Mitch McConnell's re-election campaign manager doesn't sound like the biggest fan of Mitch McConnell. The libertarian Economic Policy Journal has posted a recording of a Jan. 9 phone call between Jesse Benton and fellow Ron Paul campaign veteran Dennis Fusaro, in which Benton sounds less-than-pleased about his job. "Between you and me, I'm sorta holding my nose for two years," he says. "Cause what we're doing here is gonna be a big benefit to Rand in '16." The fallout: Benton tells the AP that he's "not 100% positive" he said that. "I'm not confirming that, but I'm not denying it either," he said. McConnell's campaign then released a statement from Benton in which he called it "truly sick that someone would record a private phone conversation I had … and use it to try to hurt me. I believe in Sen. McConnell." Fusaro tells the Weekly Standard that he released the recording because Benton is "incapable of doing the right thing" with regards to an alleged bribe a Paul staffer gave to Iowa Sen. Kent Sorenson years ago. Most of the call revolves around Fusaro confronting Benton on the matter. McConnell's Tea Party primary challenger, Matt Bevin, has started running Google Ads proclaiming that "McConnell Stinks – Even his campaign manager nose it." McConnell's camp also tried to make light of the incident, tweeting a photo of Benton standing beside McConnell and holding his nose, with the caption, "Nothing smells worse than #Obamacare! #NoseGate" McConnell hired Benton to try to link arms with the Tea Party, and now he's kind of stuck with him, another ex-Paulite tells the New Republic. "I've been telling everybody ... that when that relationship blows up, it's going to be funny," he says. "If he fires him, who does he hire? He doesn't hire a Tea Party guy, and that throws the Tea Party out the window."
