1. It's possible that Louisville reported first. I'm not certain though.

2. The so-called LIBRUL MEDIA is too busy proclaiming the end of the Democratic Party

to notice. Again, they're acting as if this midterm election is different from previous ones. It's not. The party in control almost always loses seats in off-year elections. Why the gleeful cheers, M$M?

7. I think they should be noticing at some point,

if this disparity continues...if you ask me.

4. Yup, there are more Democrats in Kentucky than Repukes.

The latest Kentucky SOS registration as per

http://elect.ky.gov/NR/rdonlyres/9B962D0A-E25D-43DE-8DE6-8603346E3433/227147/statcnty.txt

1.6 million registered Democrats

Almost 1.1 million registered Republicans


The thing is that the Democrats in Kentucky aren't necessarily Progressive/Liberal. More like Conservative Democrats in the Blanche Lincoln mold.

6. Good info

thanks.

5. It's that the GOP moderates are NOT fired up....

... and a fired up radical fringe coupled with a non-fired up moderate majority is ... as they say ... a perfect storm. ;)
