65. Connecting KYnect with Obamacare is not going to get Grimes elected.

We here at DU want Mitch McConnell gone. If it means that Allison Grimes has to diss the President, so be it. Would you rather that Grimes be a simon-pure Democrat, spouting the sort of things that would get her easily elected in the northeast, and then watch her lose the election in a landslide?

The Republicans in general, and Mitch specifically, have spent the last six years demonizing President Obama. You can't elect a Democrat in a red state this year by saying what a great job Obama has done. It's six years too late for that message.

Grimes is going to do what it takes to get elected. All of our Democratic candidates need to do what it takes to get elected in their districts. Then she, and they, will be a good Democrats, supporting a mostly liberal agenda. I don't understand why that concept is so difficult for DUers to understand.
