Scott Brown is better than Kelly Ayotte if you had to make a choice in NH.

Perdue just too the lead.

D. Perdue 29.8% 80,189
J. Kingston 29.5% 79,406
K. Handel 19.0% 51,087
P. Broun 10.6% 28,584

I don’t think Karen Handel will be able to catch them.

I feel like it’s today....with all of the flyers and phone calls. I hope Dewberry loses in a landslide.

I don't like Dewhurst but Patrick is looney binz!...unless he has changed a lot from the Dan Patrick I knew 30 years ago!

I don't think so.

Let's go gang, get out there and support those Dems so we can show everyone who's in charge.

We must first defeat the traitors on our side -- they are stopping Conservatives 100%!!

We are only voting for the RATs to get rid of the evil on our side -- McConnell and Boehner.

We are almost at the point of no return.. The evil on our side must be defeated, even if that means voting for a RAT. They must go.

Well, at the moment the Kentucky vote shows a total vote of:

388,590 Votes in the DimocRAT primary for Senate
340,133 Votes in the Republican primary

The Democrat Grimes had 93,533 more votes than McConnell (297,757 to 204,224).

The vote count shows that the DimocRATS in Kentucky have more enthusiasm than the Republican voters. I think that will carry over to the general election this fall. The votes that Grimes did not get in the RAT primary will almost all go to Grimes (Grimes did not denigrate her opponents). McConnell will NOT get all the non-McConnell votes (after his and the GOPe actions essentially WARRING on the Tea Party).

I think that when an objective assessment of Kentucky’s 2014 Senatorial election is written, it will state that McConnell won the battle of the primary race but lost the war when the general election is held. It did not have to turn out this way. McConnell could have easily won the primary without the completely unnecessary warring on the constitutional conservative part of his base—but he somehow felt compelled to do that warring. The odds are that he will live to regret that inane and counterproductive decision.

McConnell has pissed away so many chances. What makes you think he is miraculously going to become continent?

I don't. He's horrible, agreed. He's also damn near irrelevant because he's one man. And every conservative we elect waters his vote down. But tell me where I'm wrong, is he worth sacrificing a majority in 2014, losing our chance to give our conservative senators a voice?

And again, I'm not advocating everyone run out and work for the McConnell campaign but I am saying not to work against Republicans. Don't vote for the man, great. But we should band together in 2014 and get a majority. Then our voices will also be stronger.

Sure case history works. The only way to predict future actions is
by past actions. Banks do it to evaluate giving you a loan, etc everyday.

McConnell has the tools today, right now to stop Obama’s agenda.
It is called the filibuster. Just because he chooses not to use them does not
mean they are not available to him. He chooses not to use the tools he has.

We can win the other senate races, get rid of McConnell and send the GOP
a nice little message too.

Go Obama Go! Nirvana and Paradise straight ahead. That’s the ticket. While we’re at it, let’s get rid of that pesky Constitution so that we can enjoy the Supreme Leader forever. We’ll show ‘em.

I’m all for giving conservative senators a voice—that’s why McC has to go, because all too often he is effectively a gag.

Agree. The Tea Party is NOT who Midge should’ve been fighting.

I give up, vote those damn Republicans out.

Send some cash to the Dems, hell send Obama a few bucks.

I’ll spend what money I have because I won’t have a dime after their next power session but hey, if we get those damns RINOs, it will be worth it.

Good hunting, all! And may the odds be ever in your favor!
