In reply to the discussion: Well, this brightened my day a bit. re: McConnell [View all]kyburbonkid
(251 posts)36. It doesn't. Senate is popularity contest.
McConnell is just a ruthless campaigner with tons of money. He invented negative campaigning and will abuse the airwaves in an all-out assault to make his opponent look the worst of two. This is the year we attack his patriotism and allegiance to the US Constitution.
He bought off western ky with funding for an EPA superfund site. Now it funding for a Russian oligarch (and Putin loyalist) funded Aluminum processing plant in Bowling Green. Those urban centers need to be flipped to D to have a chance.
