Lesser Evil

Never think that Bruce Lunsford represents the working families of Kentucky. Unions are backing Lunsford because he is not as bad as Mitch McConnell.

Union leaders have made the cold political calculation that Lunsford’s two opponents in the primary are already toast. They’re right.

The unions also know that Lunsford’s name recognition and personal millions will make him a serious candidate against Mitch and he will have a bunch of help from the Democrats in the Senate.

The other thing you can count on is that these two guys will get in the gutter early and often. This will be a hard ball, dirty, nasty campaign.

The only thing I see positive in this campaign is that one of them will have to go home after it’s over. Either Mitch won’t be in the Senate anymore or maybe, finally Lunsford will get the idea no one wants him governing anything.

You see there is a silver lining to every cloud.
