This morning, the editorial boards of both the Louisville Courier-Journal and the Lexington Herald-Leader gave ringing endorsements of Alison Lundergan Grimes for the U.S. Senate.
In addition to noting Grimes' support of a minimum wage increase, access to child care, expanded Pre-K education, reduced student loan rates, and marriage equality, the write ups included blistering criticisms of McConnell.
From the Herald-Leader:
But, wait, you say: How can our poor state afford to give up the power that Republican Leader Mitch McConnell has amassed in 30 years in Washington, especially if Republicans take the Senate, making him the majority leader? McConnell does have power. He commands a perpetual-motion money machine; dollars flow in, favors flow out.From the Courier-Journal:
The problem is how McConnell uses his power. He has repeatedly hurt the country to advance his political strategy.
But as the stakes grew higher and campaigns more costly, he lost his way to the point where he now is identified largely as the master of obstruction and gridlock in Washington.
And they called out McConnell's big whopper of a lie that Kentucky could keep Kynect while getting rid of Obamacare.
this is what I mean all this opposition to him and they keep posting polls saying they are tied, I was lost the first time it was reported how many Kentuckians were benefiting from ObamaCares why he wasn't kicked to the curb than. it's crazy all they do and don't do look at how many different post about republican and right wing fighting against the people and how they just have a bunch of people spewing the mislead about only 2 or 3 stories against Pres., wake up people are we going to be punk'd by nothing or are we going to punk?
we will turn out no longer are their stereotypes valid they now are our reason maybe this time they will realize they know nothing about us and our voting, those who stood in line up to 7 hours should have been the wake up call but they still bank that their perception that we are to lazy to get up and vote is null and void and by Nov. 4th and certainly 2016 dead and stinkin', it's ours to win again.
