I have received tons of emails today from folks completely pissed because of the Lexington Herald Leader’s inability to be objective, like that is a surprise.
The LHL, of course, ran like Forrest Gump with a private citizen’s harmless email announcing a Beshear/Mongiardo fund raiser. The person who drafted the [...]
A totally innocent email sent by a private citizen announcing a fund raiser was turned into a political football by Jack Conway's U.S. Senate campaign and the citizen is mad as hell about it.
"It's kind of distressing that a private and personal e-mail from a private citizen is being used to smear the governor" [...]

On a personal note; where was Jack Conway and his $50,000 drug task force 2 years ago? Living in Southeastern Kentucky can be horrifying at times. I have seen people killed because of the pills and I have seen people die from the pills, for 15 long years. This shallow attempt [...]

Out of 29 categories included in the new WHAS11/SURVEYUSA poll on the U.S. Senate race Daniel Mongiardo leads in all but 4 or 3-1/2. Conway holds slim leads with 35-49 year old voters, voters under 50 (18-49) "same thing", the anti-gun crowd and holds a decent lead in Louisville.

We have the interactive cross-tabs and it is bad news for Jack Conway. The category "other" and the fact that Conway has a 17% lead in the Louisville media market was the only thing that kept Mongiardo from leading huge overall.
Mongiardo leads in all Ideology categories and the big surprise [...]
As expected Daniel Mongiardo has a decent lead over Jack Conway in a new WHAS11/SURVEYUSA poll. Mongiardo holds a 8 point lead over Conway, 39% to 31% while Darlene Fitzgerald Price has 3%, Johnson 4%, Sweeney 1% and 19% are undecided. The poll did include the category "other" that diluted the results a bit.

The Mongiardo campaign has announced yet another major labor endorsement. We should see more and more labor endorsements for the Mongiardo campaign in the weeks and months to come.

Jack Conway's S.O.B moment may have smoked, or chewed, his own ass. WHAS-11 conducted a poll of the Louisville media market, about 15 counties, and found that nearly half of the people that had knowledge of Conway's comments thought more negatively of him.
The numbers are very dangerous for Jack Conway. [...]
