Kookogey is now running and I hope both of these men are serious about the less popular one dropping out (looks like they are using a tea party straw poll) because I don’t see Lamar losing with both of them in.
Carr, having been elected to the state legislature, is the stronger candidate.
Got source for that? Here's a posting from facebook
Beat Lamar
Ralph Bristol just posted this on his Facebook account:
Eric Stamper put out the word today to Tea Party groups across the state that Kevin Kookogey has suspended his "unannounced campaign" for U.S. Senate. Here's part of what he wrote: "As of this morning, Kevin Kookogey has officially suspended his plans to run for U.S. Senate. He has relayed to me that he believes it is vital that there be a united fight to defeat Lamar Alexander and that if he continued to participate through the Coalition and Beat Lamar processes, especially in an unofficial-candidate capacity, that it would cause confusion and there wouldn't be unity. I know there are other considerations as well, but bottom line is that unless something dramatic changes in the campaign to defeat Alexander, Kevin Kookogey won't be a candidate."
Kookogey has no chance, and any additional candidates help, not hurt, Lamar!
