Judd Acting Like a Senate Candidate


Rep. John Yarmuth (D-KY) told ABC News that he "would be surprised" if Ashley Judd doesn't run for U.S. Senate against Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) in 2014.

Said Yarmuth: "My impression is this is something she wants to do, and she is now taking the time to make the contacts she needs to make throughout the state to try and generate commitments of support and in some cases fundraising. She is certainly acting like a candidate, a potential candidate."

He added: "I think in her own mind... she has made a decision to run and she's doing the right thing and not ruffling any feathers along the way."

1. Good for her.

Almost nothing would make me happier than seeing McConnell's ugly face removed from the Senate!

2. Well, she seems to have it together better than her sister.

But I don't bash Wynonna--she had some great songs back in the day.

3. K/R

Democrats need to take as many seats as possible.

4. I wish her good fortune if it comes together

Going to be a tough battle in a state that went 61-38 to mittens a few months ago, I think the deciding factors will be turnout and how she handles the gun control issue.

5. I really like Ashley Judd. I hope she wins.

She's a Steinbeck fan for the same reasons as I am.
