Hillary Clinton came to Kentucky yesterday to campaign for the Democratic ticket. She accompanied Bruce Lunsford in Pikeville, Kentucky and Lexington, Kentucky. I couldn't make it to the Pikeville event, but made it to the Lexington event, Click here to see photos.
Hillary Clinton said this "I think that one of the great gifts Kentucky can give our country is to send Bruce Lunsford to the senate and retire Mitch McConnell on November the 4th."
I'm hoping and many of us here in the state of Kentucky are working our rear ends of to give the nation this gift.
I realize there are some that don’t like Bruce Lunsford, but I have found him to be straight up and a fighter. I believe this because I’ve talked to him face to face many times.
Bruce wasn’t my first choice, Crit Luallen was and when Crit Luallan didn’t run Greg Fisher was, but that’s all over now and Bruce Lunsford is the man.
We here in Kentucky have the opportunity to give our nation a great gift and make history at the same time. So let's get off our asses, Kentuckians, and give the United States of America the gift that will keep on giving!

Senator John McCain was a no show.  Mitch McConnell and Jim Bunning cut and ran from the troops and voted against the 21st Century G.I. Bill!!! These 3 senators have terrible ratings when it comes to Iraq and Afghanistan veterans.

According to Time Magazine:
This is not the first time McCain, who has a proud history of opposing what he views as excessive government spending, has found himself at odds with his fellow veterans on legislation. He's voted for veterans funding bills only 30% of the time, according to a scorecard of roll-call votes put out by the nonpartisan Disabled Americans for America. Under the same system Obama has a 90% rating — though, of course, he has spent a much shorter time in Washington. "Senator McCain clearly needs to be recognized for his military service and in some respects that will play to his advantage, but when it actually comes to delivering health care and benefits during war, Senator McCain's going to have some explaining to do," said Paul Sullivan, director of the nonpartisan Veterans for Common Sense.

 

Project Vote Smart Ratings Of Senators John McCain, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Mitch McConnell and Jim Bunning.
"The mission of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America is to ensure the enactment of policies that properly provide for our Troops & Veterans, keep our military strong, and guarantee our national security for the purpose of a stronger America. We uniquely empower Iraq & Afghanistan combat veterans to use their credibility and experiences to speak truth to power, shape public opinion, and place a priority on these issues."

Oh The Sun Shines Bright On My Old Kentucky Racist!

Kentucky exit polls indicate that 21% of KY voters said race was important. My question is this, how many folks were asked that question, but didn't respond honestly?
I suggest the racist voted yesterday and they have been exposed and it can no longer be said, with any honesty, that race doesn't matter here in Kentucky.

CNN exit polls indicate that 21% of KY voters said the race of the candidate was important. Of them, 81% voted for Hillary Clinton, while 16% cast a ballot for Barack Obama.
Meanwhile, 18% of those who said race was important to them were white, and almost nine of 10 voted for Clinton.
For all the talk of the impact of gender bias in the Democratic contest and, most notably, in media coverage of the battle, the race of the IL senator persists as a variable for many rural, white voters.

Hillary Clinton Wins Indiana And Barack Obama Wins North Carolina.

Hillary Clinton squeaks by in Indiana with a 51 to 49 win and loses by 14 points  in North Carolina.
Last night  Tim Russert said “We now know who the Democratic nominee will be.” He added: “The Clintons have a big decision to make in the morning.”
I believe Tim Russert has it right. This race is over!!!!
