Alison Lundergan Grimes, Her Campaign Team and Coal

[Run To State]

Kentucky Democrats, including members of her campaign team, who were captured on a hidden camera video have some interesting things to say about the candidate and her stance on coal.

Enough to sink her by the elections?

[Getslow]

She was already sunk. The campaigns have to press on for obvious reasons, but McConnell was always going to win this race.

Probably correct. I saw it from the outset as something like 55-45.

[Wireman]

Most recent polls show that she is currently leading the race. There's never a doubt that McConnell's team will pull out the old "hidden cam" trick though. I love Kentucky politics.

I will tell you, that Alison is one of the most honest and caring people that I know! Don't believe everything you read, or hear. Think about it, a candidate, any candidate, who may be lying, why would they tell people that they are lying about something? 30 years of Mitch and his tactics, not to mention the horrible job he has done.

 

I know many republicans who are voting for get , and they all say the sane thin, it's not about Alison, it's about getting rid of Mitch. They say they will vote for her to get Mitch out! And they hope that the republican party would spend the next 5 years looking for and grooming a candidate to run against her. Which is my suggestion, vote for her and if you don't like what she is doing in 6 years, then vote her out.

 

We have too many politicians who are in office for far too long. People on here wonder why the people in Nevada keeps voting for Reid, other parts of the country wonder why we keep voting for Mitch. We all should worry about our own career Senator out of office, and hope other states do as well. It's beyond ridiculous the time that some people stay in office. I see where last week someone who is in DC was having health issues, hevea in his early 90's! Why in the world would you jerk voting for someone that old? No matter what good that they may have done, they deserve to retire! Anyone around that age deserves to retire and relax. Plus times have changed since they first took office.

 

And for obvious reasons this will be my last post in here , plus I can't afford to have my BP skyrocket like it was this morning. But that is just my opinion, this is not about Alison , it's about getting him out! Republicans should have voted for Bevins, just MO.

[Run To State]

I don't know if James O'Keefe is on McConnell's team. This isn't the conservative activists first hidden camera gig.

[cammando]

She is a liar, pure and simple... She is lying to get elected.. So how does this make her a better candidate than say, McConnell ?

[lawildcat]

Is this Veritas group for real? Anyone know the story with them? Either way, that was great!

 

You know Mitch has been at this a long time and he always has a trick or two up his sleeve! :ylsuper:

 

I'm a long time McConnell supporter and I realize he has to go, but Alison Grimes is not the answer for KY so not this time.

If you support him, then why does he have to hit the road?

I think all the career politicians need to go. I actually voted for Matt Bevin in the primary but things didn't work out that way. I will support McConnell in this election because he is more closely aligned with what I believe in. I am not above crossing party lines to vote either but like I said, Grimes is not it for me.

Thanks for the explainer. Your bolded comment seemed contradictory.

[All Tell]

In most years I would agree with the Ditch Mitch sentiment BUT it's way to important that the R's take over the Senate so obstructionist Harryloses power.

 

Grimes (who in her own words has been working for the Democratic Party since birth) will be a rubber stamp for Harry and Barry. And even if she isn't (which I doubt) how much can a freshman Senator do?

[Bluegrasscard]

The polls published are just keep national money flowing in probably.

Lots of Dems already consider KY a lost cause. That seems contradictory given those polls.

[jericho]

No matter how good Grimes may do or would do, it's more important to stop the Dem hold on the Senate so the huge mess can be cleaned up left behind by Obama, Reid, and Pelosi.
