I just made a trip from my place to Somerset in Kentucky. About a hundred miles round trip or so. Two different ways were taken, all of them on the back roads.
I saw numerous Bevin yard signs and amazingly not one, NOT ONE, McConnell yard sign.
On the other hand I and my friends and neighbors have been receiving ‘I support Mitch” robo-calls unceasingly for the last five days. Personally I let the answering machine get them and if the Robo-calls starts blasting away, I answer and hang-up immediately.
One of my wife’s friends received 21 call this weekend and called the local McConnell office to complain and tell them to stop the Harassment!
So my own entirely unofficial position is that McConnell is really running scared. He is spending his campaign cash like it was government money in direct, personal campaigning with directed mail flyers and these G.D. irritating phone calls. And I hope he loses and loses big! For five years and six months he ignores his ‘home’ state every term he has been in the Senate and only pays attention when it’s campaign season.
It’s time to give McConnell a long-over due retirement.
That’s very good to hear! I’d love for Bevin to have an upset, or short of that, a very high percentage to scare the hell out of every official across the country. We’ll see tomorrow.
