KY Senate Race 2014: Getting lucky in Kentucky

[RogueBeaver]

LOL, Bevin says the Founding Fathers were "very involved" in cockfighting and dogfighting. What a finksing clown.

McConnell describes fair pay for women as "the left's latest bizarre obsession"

Stay classy, Mitch.

The NRA endorses McConnell.

[moderatevoter]

His comments about "bizarre obsession" were in reference to Reid's diatribes against the Koch brothers.

Bevin raised $1.1 million (no word on self-funding), McConnell 2.4. No word from Grimes.

Are the KY-6 candidates strong?

Strong enough to beat Andy Barr.

With ads like these and a more friendly environment, Bandit might actually be right.

Irony?

Grimes raised 2.7 Million, and has 5 Million CoH

Wow.

[windjammer]

Ouch.
I hope he will lose. (but unlikely...)

Wow.

Combine that with the fact that he trails Grimes in the poll aggregate, clearly the likely R rating for this race is justified.

McConnell clearly has the same odds of winning as Warner, Franken, and Merkley, and a better chance than Shaheen

[RogueBeaver]

McConnell radio ad hitting Bevin on cockfighting and other gaffes. Also, a local TV station will be doing an expose on cockfighting politics. Bevin will be included.

[Miles]

Wow. Bevin speaking at a hearing in favor of cockfighting. Bevin tries to plead ignorance, but the evidence against him is pretty obvious.

[RogueBeaver]

Yeah, Bevin has been clownish for a while. Question is where in the 30s or dare I say early 40s he finishes with. Local media and Team Mitch have had a lot of fun with him.

Open mouth, insert foot.

What exactly is McConnell's job then?

Then again, I can't figure out what his actual profession was before he became a senator. Was he a truck driver, a librarian, a gas station attendant, an IT professional? Is there any proof that he's ever done any real work like I have?

[RogueBeaver]

Bevin literally runs away from reporters asking him about cockfighting.

Jefferson County Judge/Executive

Nice touch on the "like I have".

[Bandit3 the Worker]

So I guess he didn't have to get a regular job first before he became Jefferson County Judge-Exec.

IIRC, he was in the National Guard (Or Reserves, don't remember which) before being discharged for not meeting physical criteria.

[RogueBeaver]

Grimes is buying $37k of ads in Louisville and Lexington.

How Bevin flopped.
