More On That Fancy U.S. Senate Poll

March 9th, 2010 · 8 Comments

First SurveyUSA U.S. Senate Poll Released

March 7th, 2010 · 12 Comments

As Joe said, Survey USA/WHAS11 polled the U.S. Senate election in November as a generic party question, so there’s no sense looking at that result.

Republicans

Grayson 27
Paul 42

Martin 3
Scribner 1
Stephenson 2
Undecided 19

Friday Evening Dept of Wasteful David Williams

March 5th, 2010 · 6 Comments

In case you missed it, David Williams is forcing the Kentucky State Police to spend untold hundreds of thousands of dollars to guard his butt outside the Commonwealth of Kentucky.  Meanwhile, he’s got his own bloated staff and hypocritically call for cuts everywhere but his budget. [Page One]

Mongiardo Releases First Campaign Ad

March 4th, 2010 · 5 Comments

Here’s Lt. Dan’s first spot of the campaign:

Daniel Mongiardo’s campaign guy, Dick Prelopski, says (in the latest email blast) that actions speak louder than words. And he’s right. In 2004, Lt. Dan authored and pushed Senate Bill 245, one of the most gay panic/anti-gay pieces of legislation in Kentucky history. He cheated […]
