My guess is that she cashes in on her 15 minutes of fame to use it as a springboard for a campaign for...congress, perhaps?

If she runs for something, which party would she run with?  I guess she ran as a Democrat for county clerk.

The DLC/Third Way types would probably endorse her and sabotage the campaign of anyone who opposed her in the primary, because she is the "least liberal" Democrat.

She should run for President.  Trump vs. Davis 2016.  What would the map look like?

If it was Hillary Clinton versus Kim Davis, Clinton would win every state. The question is, would Davis underperform in Kentucky after all the negative attention?

Lol, you do realize that moderate establishment Democrats (like Cuomo) are obsessed with social issues.

The local Kentucky GOP would roflstomp her anyway. Liberals would shun her and moderate Republicans wouldn't cross party lines.

Is she at least pro-choice (if only "on paper")? Then Emily's List will endorse her over any man, no matter how much more progressive.

She's UPC. That's United Pentacostal. They're as pro-life as they come.

I wouldn't be surprised if she ended up on the Republican ticket in 2016. If Trump can lead in the polls, anything is possible.

I betcha she runs for the Constitution Party nomination at the last moment. Gets rejected in favor of John Hostedwhateva. Who in turn ends up doing worse than Davis would, ironically.

She could run for State House when long-term State Rep Rocky Adkins retires. It's a stalwart demosaur seat in north-east Kentucky so she'd be wise to maintain her candidacy as a Democrat.

No, and she is going to lose getting reelected clerk if she tries to run again. Rowan County dislikes made being looked this bad and backward and lawless to the nation. You just watch.

...especially since Rowan County might be THE most liberal rural Kentucky county. Compared to a big city, it's pretty conservative - but compared to a rural county in Kentucky, it's pretty liberal.

Is there any information at all on her positions on non-marriage-related issues?

Anyway, I suppose she could run, but she won't win, due to being too homophobic for the Democrats, and too much of a Democrat for the Republicans.
