I am loving Lt. Col. Amy McGrath.

[sheshe2]

She is nailing the turtle every step of the ways.
She took an oath six times in her life, served and served her country well. He has failed his, every step of the way..

Sweet.

6. I think that's a bit of a mischaracterization.

Kentucky is going to Trump. Therefore, McGrath has to walk the line so that Republicans who vote for Trump will split their ballot and vote for her in the other statewide race. Saying "Trump wanted to drain the swamp, but McConnell can't get anything done" was a way of turning him into a boogeyman.

I'm not saying that I would be caught dead saying anything remotely positive about Trump, but given the factors, it's not a bad approach.

8. Do you have a link to that and the context of the quote?

PS. Did you watch the debate? I did.

[JI7]

13. It's not just about this election . If she can come close that can help in future elections

it even lower level elections.

Beto lost the Senate race but high turnout helped down ballot Democrats win.

2. She did a great job in my opinion

[Lonestarblue]

18. I agree. I watched the debate and saw a disengaged McConnell.

He blamed Obama for the loss of coal jobs (not true), didn’t bother to defend all the bills he win’t let the Senate take up, and tried to tell people that his seniority benefits Kentucky when in reality it benefits him alone. McGrath did a good job tonight.

3. I'm making a donation to her campaign. She needs & deserves our support

💙👍🍃$$$$$

[Marius25]

9. Please donate to Gary Peters instead.

He needs the money way more than McGrath.

[Budi]

21. I'll donate to McGrath considering the s.o.b. she's taking on.

[sheshe2]

24. ...

[Budi]

25. Yup!

[Native]

20. I believe both McGrath & Mark Kelly have asked that any future donations be directed to others

in more need. IOW, they have all the money they need. If I'm remembering incorrectly, please someone correct me.

[scipan]

31. You're right.

4. She is the only candidate that I have a monthly contribution to

And I don't even live in Kentucky. Mitch McConnell has to go. He is one of America's most evil leaders.

This was the first time I've heard her debate, and she is outstanding. Doesn't get rattled, and comes back with clear, logical and effective responses.

Go Amy!

[Budi]

22. 💙👍 Amy McGrath is a courageous fighter to stand up to Mitch Mc

[sheshe2]

26. Imagine this!

An Astronaut and a Lt Col in the Senate.

[Budi]

27. No kidding! Imagine the places she could take us into the future

We'd be damned lucky to have her onboard.

[mcar]

10. She was terrific

We saw the last 20 minutes or so and were so impressed. Moscow Mitch had nothing but New York, Schumer, back bencher and criticizing her for mentioning her military service.

I know it's a long shot, but I think she's our best shot at removing that sh!t stain from the Senate.

[sheshe2]

12. Love that he said he brought soooo much money to Kentucky.

He just didn't make it clear that all that money went to him and wifie.

As for coal....what a hoot. It's gone Mitch. Clean energy is the future, the dinosaurs like Mitch just don't know it yet. Can you say extinction?

[mcar]

14. Oh yeah, the coal segment

He's Trumpian in his "we're going to bring back coal. The bad Obama took it away" schtick. I thought she straddled that line well. Coal ain't coming back and shouldn't. Coal miners and their families need to be helped into the future with, as McGrath said, education, infrastructure, and broadband.

11. She is running a lot of good ads but she needs to get tougher.

Turtle is running an ad that says she is bought by the California elists and is for full term abortions. I’m a lifelong Kentuckian who lives is southern Indiana for work. I actually have to work with Turtle’s office on a daily basis (well until they stopped answering the phone). I have followed Moscow Mitch since his first very nasty election. There is no low he won’t go to.

I wish her campaign would run an ad showing the Turtle saying his main job after Obama’s election was to make him a one term president. He then proceeded to deliberately block anything he could for eight years. Appointments, judgeships legislation, everything and everything. Talk about bench loading. If it weren’t for one deceased republican senator, we wouldn’t have healthcare. So run an ad stating is this what you want for the next four years? Partisanship, obstruction, delay, hate groups, use his own words against him.

[JI7]

15. That would help McConnell. It's a mostly white right wing state

What would hurt him is people knowing how him and his wife enrich themselves through govt.

[hibbing]

16. Video of him laughing is blowing up

Absolutely disgusting how smug he is.


Peace

[sheshe2]

17. He did the same on Fox the other night.

Same laugh...someone posted it here. It was about him stacking the courts and stealing an Obama pick 2016.

[Sugarcoated]

19. Very impressed with her

Very authentic and passionate

[kyburbonkid]

23. She got my vote...

Just sayin...

[Blue Owl]

28. Pummel McConnell...

[ehrnst]

29. Where is Charles Booker? Some support for her would be helpful right now.

Am I missing any public statements from him encouraging people to vote for her to oust Mitch?

[sheshe2]

30. Nothing.

Not even on his Twitter feed this morning. *sigh*
