Grimes has little or nothing to offer than that she is not McConnell. This is reminiscent of Beavin, who is on the right side of the issues but did not effectively show how McConnell's bad votes have hurt his constituents.

Smart money would be on McConnell, even if he is right less than 15% of the time on the issues. That would be more than Grimes.

I don’t care for mitch but grimes supported Obama. If she’s that stupid, we surely don’t need her.

Well, you can't blame him for trying. But he way over-estimated the intelligence of the low-information voter.

Consider the question of whether cock-fighting should be a federal issue or left to the several states. (By venturing into such territory, you are already challenging the IQ of the typical LIV.)

So, there was this farm bill before the Senate, which made it a federal crime punishable by a year in the can and $100k fine for attending a cock-fight (three years and $250K for bringing a minor with). So, what happens? McConnell votes aye!

Bevin thinks, aha! I've got an issue! Obviously, cock-fighting is a state issue! My clueless opponent has proven he does not understand the Constitution by voting to make a federal law against it! Gotcha, Mitch!

(As it happens, cock-fighting has been illegal in Kentucky all along, the USG notwithstanding, f--- 'em.)

So, what does Bevin do?

Why, he makes a speech in favor of states' rights in front of a rally to make cock-fighting legal! LOL! What a doofus!

What does the MSM report? And what does the LIV understand? Why, obviously, that Bevin is a yahoo hayseed extremist who's in favor of cock-fighting!

Grimes is a liberal democrat. There’s no getting away from that fact.

McConnell is a crony republican. There’s no getting away from that fact.

McConnell is pro-life and Grimes is pro-death, so I’d probably end up pulling the lever for McConnell if I lived on the other side of the river.
