Courier-Journal Endorses Alison Lundergan Grimes!!! Woo Hoo!

[NYC_SKP]

On Nov. 4, voters could choose the familiar persona of Republican incumbent Mitch McConnell, 72, who is seeking a sixth Senate term after 30 years in office.

Or Kentuckians can risk crossing the threshold into the future by voting for a young, relatively untested Democratic challenger who nonetheless offers intelligence, energy and clear potential to take on the job as Kentucky's next U.S. senator.

We urge voters to choose the future and elect Alison Lundergan Grimes.

Ms. Grimes, 35, a lawyer and Kentucky's secretary of state, has tackled an enormous challenge in taking on Mr. McConnell, a legendarily formidable political foe and, as Senate minority leader, one of the nation's most powerful Republicans.

I'm in California and sent her $50.

Can you send her $5 or $10 to get rid of Mitch McConnell?

6. People who are unsure really do pay attention to endorsements.

Sometimes they're a counter-incentive, but usually they work to the benefit of the endorsee!

4. Excellent. Sometimes those endorsements help get the job done.

Getting rid of the turtle would make my day!

Wonder if it was that commercial she did with the gun! Pretty effective even if over the top.

7. WOW... great news!

I really hope ALG can win this thing. Either way, she can hold her head high. She did the absolute best that she could to challenge one of the most powerful Republicans in the Senate.

8. She has created a grassroots machine...

Over the entire state. She is very popular and charismatic, sort of like a female JFK...
