Rand Paul Tied in KY Poll

 Don't say we didn't warn you.

If Trey Greyson was on the top of this poll, he'd likely be winning by 10% or more. However, since the primary voters in kentucky overwhelmingly chose Paul, they're looking at a tough, unnecessary slog. According to a PPP poll, which tends to lean Democratic, both Paul and his opponent, Jack Conway carry an equal amount of support.

Paul (R): 43%
Conway (D): 43%
Und/Other: 14%


 Furthermore, Paul's negatives are above 40%, which is dangerously high for a non-incumbent. In the short amount of time from the primaries to today, Paul seems to have alienated many Democrats and Republicans alike-- pushing people to come out to vote against him.

Paul is far away from the 50% he needs to sew up this race. Kentucky is a deep red state in a GOP year. Normally, a Republican candidate would be sweeping the floor, but Paul and his outlandishly dumb statements may hand a seat to the Democrats-- exactly what we don't need.

Primary Day Review - May 18, 2010.

For all Conservative minded individuals; yesterday was pure hell watching the Pennsylvania and Kentucky Primaries, along with that special election in Pennsylvania's 12th district, which in the end proves that voters are still naive. There was little good news, but much heartache:

Kentucky

Rand Paul; the son of Congressman Ron Paul, whom I despise with a passion, defeated the Kentucky Secretary of State Trey Grayson by 80,000 votes last night, receiving the GOP Nomination on a campaign that ran against the GOP platform on National Defense, and on Libertarian beliefs. This nomination will only help the Democrat candidate in November.

I would rather lose this seat in November, than to see this Isolationist dirtbag in Congress, or anywhere near there.

Pennsylvania

Pat Toomey had one definite path to victory: Senator Arlen Specter winning the Democratic Nomination. But that didn't happen last night - Congressman Sestak received the nomination without much problem, and the electoral chances of Pat Toomey are complicated for this November.

Pat Toomey will do a fine job campaigning against Joe Sestak, and with Senator Specter no longer in contention, the Republican vote should go to Toomey's campaign without problem, however, without having the "flip flopping" king of Pennsylvania as his opponent, things will become difficult.

Pennsylvania's 12th district

Mark Critz (D) - 71,684 - 53.4%
Tim Burns (R) - 59,476 - 44.3%
Demo Agoris (L) - 3,142 - 2.3%

Must I say more? Like Doug Hoffman, David Harmer, and James Tedisco before him, Tim Burns has lost with the complete backing of Conservative blogs and organizations. Momentum might be behind Republicans, but I just don't see it yet, especially in a district that John McCain won with ease in 2008.

Arkansas

Good news: Neither Senator Lincoln nor Lt. Governor Bill Halter received enough votes for the Democrat nomination last evening. Forcing the Democratic dogfight to continue for at least a few more weeks.

Great news: Congressman John Boozman was selected as the Republican Nominee with 53% of the vote. He's performing well against both his potential Democratic opponents in general election polls. For Arkansas Republicans this is excellent news, and should be celebrated.

Overall

Kentucky - We're screwed.
Pennsylvania - Tough general election upcoming.
Pennsylvania 12 - Naive Democratic addicts.
Arkansas - Good and Great news.

Vote in Our Poll: Trey Grayson or Rand Paul for the GOP Nod?

So what do you think?



Kentucky Republican Primaries Tomorrow.

Kentucky Republicans will be selecting their preferred candidates tomorrow afternoon in one Senatorial election and in two Congressional elections (3rd and 6th districts). While most are focusing on the Grayson vs. Rand battle (I support Grayson), Republicans in the sixth district must get out and vote; their congressional district is R+9, and should be in Republican control.

Please keep in mind that I'm a Conservative Republican, and that I will endorse a candidate who can win, even if he or she is not a 100% down-the-line Conservative.

These are my endorsements:

Senatorial - Trey Grayson.
1st congressional - Congressman Whitfield.
2nd congressional - Congressman Guthrie.
3rd congressional - Todd Lally.
4th congressional - Congressman Davis.
5th congressional - Congressman Rogers.
6th congressional - Andy Barr.

Regardless of who you support in tomorrow's Primary elections, please remember to vote my fellow Republicans!

Rand Paul is as Nuts as His Dad

Rand Paul has made waves with his strong challenge for a Kentucky Senate seat currently held by Jim Bunning (R). Paul is challenging Trey Grayson. Paul is certainly a small-government conservative, pushing for a return to fiscal responsibility. But he is also extremely clueless on foreign policy, standing like his father against fundamental defense policy.

That being said, Paul has come out with a preposterous Ron Paul-esque view of the Iranian situation. According to NewsReal, Paul has no problem with Iran getting nuclear weapons, and blames it on Israel and the United States.

This is one of the most retarded policy platforms I've seen in a while. This is straight out of the Kucinich playbook. Hell, even Obama isn't even this dumb.

I don't know why Sarah Palin has chosen to support him over Grayson, but I'm sure she has a good reason.

CNN Calls Kentucky For McCain

A solid Republican state, Kentucky, has been called for John McCain. CNN also called Vermont for Obama, even though no votes are in.
