Outside of the presidential contest, the best political race worth watching THIS YEAR is the gubernatorial showdown in Kentucky between Democrat Jack Conway and Republican Matt Bevin. The reason: It could very well be the last Obama War. Indeed, the Republican Governors Association this month has released two TV ads -- one linking Conway with Obama's energy policies and the other hitting Conway on the health-care law. And it seems like Conway is following the Alison Grimes playbook. He is up with an ad bragging that he was the only Democratic attorney general to sue the Obama admin over coal issues. Bottom line: If Bevin wins, it largely will be due to Obama's unpopularity in the state (plus Conway's handling of it) and it could mean it won't spell the end of the Obama wars, at least in the red states. But a Conway win could very well signal the end.

I wonder if Trump will campaign for Biven?
Bevin!
These are the same people that sent McConnell back to DC, so I don’t think anyone is hoping for much.
After the political assassination of Allison and the Election of McConnell, and the utter failure of Paul. Does anyone here have any faith in the Kentucky GOP machine? It is as BOLD as Haley’s machine in Mississippi!
I’m really glad to see that Bevin learned from all his missteps with his primary challenge to McConnell and is running a really tight and focused campaign this time around.
NOT AT ALL, It’s the only good thing the Turtle ever did, IMHO.
Kentucky has a formidable GOP machine.
Alison Lundergan Grimes is on the ballot again this year - running for re-election as SOS - hopefully we can get rid of her for good this time.
One of her opponent’s campaign themes has been cyber security, and after the latest revelations on Hillary’s e-mail server he posted a great twitter post with a picture of Hillary and Grimes together - https://twitter.com/SteveKnipperKY
Scroll down a bit to find it.
Bevin offers the only hope for Right to Work Law in KY. Unless the court case goes the right way.
Sorry for the bitch, are you?
The word “last” in reference to Obama is not only misleading it’s wrong. (tongue-in-cheek)I’m sure whatever it is that he’s got planned, his legacy will be one that whatever historical time bomb he’s got in place, it’s one he hopes will last.
I was being sarcastic or stupid, forgot the /s, anyway, McConnell did to her what he’s done for us, Half-A$$, she is still alive (in a political sense)
Don’t know if trump will, but I got an invite to fundraiser for Bevin and was going to attend until I saw McConnell was guest speaker. Will support Bevin but not McConnell. He makes me sick!
McConnell isn’t the one getting the money at a Bevin fundraiser, you know. :-)
