In reply to the discussion: In Kentucky, prominent Democrats wooing Alison Lundergan Grimes, not Ashley Judd [View all]TrollBuster9090
(6,116 posts)Ashley Judd is a classic 'GAMECHANGER' (in the GOOD sense, as opposed to the Sarah Palin sense).
Here's why they should go with Judd:
1. EVERY WORD that comes out of Ashley Judd's mouth will get COAST TO COAST COVERAGE, and
2.Every word that comes out of her mouth WILL BE GOOD.
Everybody will be expecting her to be a celebrity bubblehead, when in fact she's actually a highly intelligent, highly educated, common sense person. (Basically the f-ing OPPOSITE of 'game changer' Sarah Palin, who, being a career politician, everybody expected to be intelligent and rational, and turned out to be the the reverse. A celebrity bubblehead.)
Judd already has the advantage of 'low expectations' which she can easily surpass. She ALREADY has a network of national, free publicity, and she's got the smarts to put that celebrity profile to good use.
Grimes is exactly the kind of candidate the GOP would LOVE to run against, and exactly the kind of Democratic Party politician that set the Democrats up for A DECADE OF LOSSES. ie-a typical, no-name politician that Dems think can win because the GOP won't be able to find much to SMEAR her with. Bullshit! That was the GOP ROMNEY strategy, and we've just PROVED it doesn't work. You can't just run a boring "generic" candidate in the hopes that everybody is so fed up with the incumbent that they'll vote for the candidate with the paper bag over their head.
Here, I'll make a confession. I was against the Dems running AL FRANKIN! I thought it would make a mockery of the Democratic Party, and he had no chance of winning. They'd just smear him as a 'comic' gag-man with no political experience, and he'd lose. I was against them running 'bubblehead celebrity' Al Frankin for Senate...AND I WAS DEAD WRONG. Let's not make that mistake again.
