7 to 3

Make that 8 to 3. That's the count on Moscow mitchs to Amy McGraths ads I've seen here in Louisville in the last few hours. EIGHT to THREE. I've read that Ms. McGrath has stopped fund raising because she has "enough" money. If that is the case..... I can only hope she's spending it in other parts of the state because she's getting slaughtered ad-wise here. This race is getable but damn, I'd sure like to know what's going on inside her campaign as far as strategy is concerned.

Sorry if I sound frustrated but DAMN!

Can't understand it and it gets ..... so....... durn...... maddening! I understand Louisville is the Bluest part of the state but these ads are seen by a much wider audience than just the Louisville Metro area.

Maybe they see McGrath as nice but can't represent their interests they way he can. I can understand it, but it's shitty.

But one of Ms. McGraths pac's (one of those I counted btw) was very powerful about how mitch got his wealth. Very damning but .... have only seen it once.

Happy to hear that. Louisville is pretty safely in the Blue column so, .... maybe that's it. I can only hope. I want that s.o.b. out of the Senate sooooooooo bad.

Trump will win KY again by double digits too. I gave up trying to understand the KY electorate. They elected a GOP governor who ran expressly on eliminating "Obamacare". A large percent of KY were covered by Obamacare but they thought they had something different because it wasn't called Obamacare in KY. For those who think that the more liberal Booker would have fared any better than Mcgrath I'm convinced he wouldn't have. While Beshear won the Gov race in 2018 he was running against a guy who was hated and it was still a photo finish.
