Shack. Welcome aboard. Mongiardo indeed made a lot of people very mad with SB 245. While I did not personally agree with the bill itself I agree that most Kentuckians did. I do not agree with Mongiardo on everything, but overall I think he is a good man and a fine candidate. I believe on two of the issues we need more votes on in the Senate he will be strong; on worker's rights and healthcare.
I agree too that Conway will do better within the urban triangle and that Mongiardo will do better without. I think very highly of Yarmuth, but I doubt he could win my seat over here in the First.
As far as the Conway Duke thing, that does not really bother me. Duke is a very prestigous school and it wasn't necessarily a jab at UK to go there.
I admire both of our Senate candidates. I think they both have strengths and weaknesses, but are both good men and would do a hell of a job. I want to stay neutral to report impartially on this site for both sides, but I welcome any member who wants to respectfully lay out their case for either one.
Hopefully some Conway folks will come aboard and make their case too!!
