I also think that he's more than a little bitter about the aggressive attacks on his credibility and integrity by his GOP opponent last week. I'm all for going on offense, but his opponent (think his name was Davis) crossed the line in his final-week radio ads

Really? I missed their debate and never saw/heard much of anything from Lucas at all. My neighbor saw the debate and said that Lucas was nasty. Then came out the ads about Davis' honesty and releasing 10 years of tax returns.

Is this what you're talking about or is there something else?

Yes, I am talking about the same thing. I didn't mention that Davis, at least in his commercials, said he released 10 years of his tax returns. I figured this was in response to a Lucas attack, but I thought Davis went a bit over the top in response to the attack. It's certainly true that neither guy played nice.

The bottom line is that I think Lucas, rightly or not, is somewhat bitter, and that this might be a factor in preventing a switch.

That said, Lucas seems to have beliefs that are closer to the GOP than they are to the San Franciscans who appear to be taking over the Democratic Party. If I remember correctly, he's pro-life and pro-RTKBA. I he could "get over it," his future would be brighter, especially in a state (KY) that appears to finally be breaking to the GOP for good. I've never understood why the Dems have had such a stranglehold in an obviously conservative state.
