REPUBLICANS BRING IN CAMPAIGN CASH
By all accounts the GOP event in Louisville was successful. Republican donors handed over about $2 million to be split between McCain’s campaign and the state GOP.
McCAIN-McCONNELL
On June 28th… Senator Mitch McConnell, candidate for re-election and Senator John McCain, candidate for President, will hold a joint fundraiser in Louisville.

McConnell reasons that only because of time purchased by candidates, can they speak the unfiltered truth to the public.
POLL SHOWS SLIGHT LUNSFORD LEAD
Polls taken two days after the media hoopla surrounding a competitive primary victory can certainly skew a poll. That having been said…. the Bruce Lunsford camp is trying to draw some attention to an independent statewide poll.
CLINTON… BOOSTED BY KENTUCKY… FIGHTS ON
After my one on one interview with Senator Hillary Clinton this week, there was no doubt in my mind that she would continue her campaign regardless of the Kentucky outcome.

Kentucky’s primary is here and the Democratic presidential nomination is still unsettled. Such a scenario was unthinkable last year, when many said Kentucky’s primary would be too late to count. That may still be true… but no one should tell that to Hillary and Bill Clinton. The two have campaigned non-stop in the Bluegrass State in recent days. It is obviously part of a strategy to show that she can win in often Republican leaning middle America.
