A Smidgeon Of Hope In KY? Quinnipiac Poll Pulls Me Out Of Bitterness and Despair About McGrath.

Those brave few who read my diaries know that I am usually filled with cynicism, anger, and depression when it comes to politics in my home state of Kentucky. And I was at the lowest point I could be a couple of days ago with the release of a Morning...

The Future Face of Evil In Kentucky: State Attorney General Daniel Cameron.

I don’t know how else to describe someone who is pro-coronavirus as anything but evil, or as The Louisville Courier-Journal columnist Joseph Gerth calls Kentucky State Attorney General as “bidding to become Kentucky’s most prolific serial killer.” But Daniel Cameron is evil. During the midst of a surging viral epidemic, Cameron has taken...

Thoughts on Kentucky Democratic Primary 2020.

Suprisingly, the 2020 Kentucky Democratic Primary for U.S. Senate was probably the major driver for the higher than expected voter turnout (initial estimate of 32% voter participation statewide). Yes, I know that is still a terrible number for any democracy, but the usual voter turnout in Kentucky is around 20%...
