November 9, 201114 yr I'm already getting tired of the notion that Gatewood cost Williams the election. Most of the Gatewood voters I know would have either stayed at home or voted for Beshear.Williams cost Williams the election.
November 9, 201114 yr I worked with a girl who's last name is P'Pool. And my family has close family friends named P'Pool. It's actually not that uncommon.I know some people named P'Pool as well.
November 9, 201114 yr The Republican party had some pretty weak candidates for this election, especially Williams. That had to contribute to the low turn out.
November 9, 201114 yr Sure hope the GOP Senate Caucus develops a spine and tosses Williams out of his leadership spot. Wouldn't mind seeing an investigation of him, either, over his being on the payroll of the Indiana casino lobby.

November 9, 201114 yr Author Somehow I missed this ad until now. VERY good ad. When I sold cell phones in Lexington Alison used to come in quite often. She even helped me with another matter after I left the store. I was very glad to see her get the win.
November 9, 201114 yr Author Looks like the Tea Party candidate may have cost KC Crosbie a win.He was the Libertarian candidate which is definitely not the same thing. As far as costing someone the election, I say run a better campaign. I don't buy that notion. Looks like Moellman may have won the LP ballot access though which coupled with a small personal relationship is what I based my vote on.
November 9, 201114 yr He was the Libertarian candidate which is definitely not the same thing. In his particular case, or just in general?
November 9, 201114 yr Author In his particular case, or just in general?I would say in general. The Tea Party has many ideas that are far from the LP's platform. They do typically get the support of the LP as they have proven to be better at winning elections. But I think you will find the LP candidates to be quite different from the Tea Party and they don't seem to get a large portion of support from people claiming to be the Tea Party.
November 9, 201114 yr Author Considering how dominate the Democrats were in every other race I find Comer's margin of victory to be quite impressive.
November 9, 201114 yr I have a feeling Alison Lundergan Grimes will have her name mentioned a lot to take down McConnell. KET's talking her up as a possibility for Gov the next time around. She'll need to stop yelling and figure out how to use her hands. And that comment is from a Democrat - me!
November 9, 201114 yr Author Looking like Gatewood is going to fail to reach double digits. Considering his impressive numbers in Lexington I wish he would go with my long-running idea that he would best be served running for a council seat in Lexington and working his way up from that. Unfortunately it may be too late for even that. He still remains one of the few (possibly only) candidates I am very proud to have cast a vote for.
November 9, 201114 yr Considering how dominate the Democrats were in every other race I find Comer's margin of victory to be quite impressive. Yeah, but that might have more to do with his opponent than Comer.
