Looks like the wheels are in motion. Bernie, Joe, Liz, are all done. Bloomberg will pave the way for Hillary. She'll be back.. The soy boy antifa activists have no interest in mini Mike. Hillary is what they want. She's what they need.
 
You seem like a simpleton not able to see a diverse election but only able to compute one single factor to rail against. If you aren’t able to compute more than one variable then your dumbass should avoid throwing around intelligence assessments.

Well, gotta say this is the first time I've been called a simpleton. If you're trying to deny teachers were the most highly charged and motivated political group in this election, then I have no clue what to tell you. It's not just their votes, it was they aggressive campaigning, their family, their friends etc. There were FAR more voters in this election vs the last. Do you really think more people just decided to get involved? Or maybe a decent % were enticed in some way? I cant tell you how many times a teacher tried to influence me and my wife. Leading up to the election, it was almost daily. The funny part was, when I pointed out it was daddy beshear who raided their pension, they gave me a dear in the headlights look and denied it. Ignorance will not be bliss in their case. They'll pay and according to Beashear's first budget, already are paying for their mistake.

I understand they were mad because Bevin was an ass as you stated in a different post. Not denying that at all. That doesnt excuse intentional ignorance. People hate trump because of campaigners rhetoric, and never do any actual research of what's really going on in this country. The teachers duped themselves, and it will cost them. Although by the time this hits crises levels, beshear will be long gone, just like his daddy was.

Panic! Panic! Panic!

My entire tweeter feed is being inorganically filled with tweets from leftist accounts that I don't follow, pushing desperation antics that do little more than make me laugh.

5-7 tweets about new Trump email evidence alone, and I don't follow any of these accounts, and none were retweets.

Their tears of desperation are delicious. :joy:
 
Beshear won because Jefferson and Fayette counties voted for him. That's it. That's all we need to know. He won 2 counties out of 120. There is no electoral college in state elections. Pretty good corollary for what would happen in America under the same conditions.

If those two counties decided the election, then how have we ever had a republican Governor? How did Bevin beat Conway? There we’re underlying or additional factors involved that allowed those population centers to overcome the rest of the state. Teachers were a huge and primary reason for that.

Had he talked to them with respect he would still be here, that’s on him. The teachers paid their share and not only don’t get what they were promised but get insulted to boot?

What weren't they getting? Bevin was the first governor in years to make sure they would. They still attacked and whined due to misinformation and inability to think for themselves. They marching in protest for funding they were already getting but hadn't gotten in years.

Now Andy comes up $83,000,000 short and not even a peep from the same crowd. So the time to be pissed would actually be now. But it'll never happen because he appointed kea goons over the state board of education.

I have a whole family of educators. Luckily they weren't some of the mindless morons marching against their own interests because their union told them to

Other factors . . . the Kentucky governor’s race was extremely competitive in the other Kentucky counties (besides Jefferson and Fayette) that had state universities (Murray, Eastern, Western, Northern, Morehead, etc). So another “factor” was that the more highly educated a county was, the more Beshear voters there were.

Not surprising at all though, as the nationwide red wave has been more predominant in poorly educated states.

Better yet - if that was true it would be a clean Democrat sweep. It was the opposite. Except governor

All the other statewide GOP candidates won by historic margins in that same election. So there were a bunch of republican voters who turned their backs on Bevin and his antics. It wasn't the teachers who vote for democrats who made the difference. It was republicans who split their tickets against Bevin.

Not sure what you’re trying to insinuate here. The reality is voting only requires a bit of common sense and not a high degree of education. One could argue in these “highly educated” areas...there’s higher crime rates, the infrastructure is chit, there’s record homelessness, and they’re typically over taxed and over regulated.

Have you been on a college campus lately and seen what "educated" looks like? More like highly brainwashed and confused. Just the way your filthy party likes them.

Beshear won about 20 counties, not just those two.

The dumbest statement thus far in this thread.

Yeah, Lexington is a real shithole. Dirt roads, I can't step out my front door without being shot at, there's a homeless encampment in my back yard. It's high time I moved somewhere like Beattyville where everything is champagne and roses.
 
4pm National Signing Day. Shouldn't interfere with recruiting signings & information. Smart move making it so late in day.
The Day after President Trump’s State of the Union Address. perfect timing.

Energized Lexington and Louisville flocked to Beshear. The attorney general received 36,500 more votes than Bevin in Fayette County and 99,000 more votes in Jefferson County.

How many votes did Bevin lose by? I could have said Jefferson Co. alone was the difference and still been correct.

You are a dumbass blaming a whole state election on one group when you don’t know how many of them voted or how they all voted. Only a fkn idiot would whine like a baby because he’s so partisan that you’d vote a straight Republican ticket for anybody. Huge amounts of non teachers voted for Beshear, yet you didn’t be see it on the news and they isn’t to blame. How about you get smart and blame Bevins, that’s who cost you your precious governor. How about you justify him giving pardons to rapists, that should enlighten you as to what a pos Bevins was.

But you’ll skip over that or anything else Bevins did to burn bridges. There’s nothing worse than somebody who only votes for one party no matter who it is. Bevins screwed himself by being a disrespectful punk and anybody stupid enough to insult his constituents deserves to lose. If Trump was awful I’d call him out, I don’t defend trash just because they’re Republican. Blame whoever you want, he’s still gone. Good riddance

There’s still a lot of red influence in and surrounding Lexington. If Lexington had years of liberal policies and a state with essentially a one party system that had taken hold for years, you’d be loving places like Beattyville.

How do I know? I’ve lived in the Bay Area for 11 yrs. This is not the road KY or any other place would ever want to go down.
 
Daniel Jay Cameron is the 51st Attorney General for the Commonwealth of Kentucky after winning nearly 58 percent of the vote and 113 of 120 counties. He is the first African American independently elected to statewide office in Kentucky's history and the first Republican elected to the Attorney General's office since 1948.

As legal counsel to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Cameron successfully spearheaded the confirmation processes for conservative federal judges, including Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch. Cameron has served as spokesman for the Kentucky Smart on Crime Coalition, and in 2017, the Kentucky Narcotics Officers Association named him “Legislative Staffer of the Year.” His commitment to working with law enforcement was further acknowledged by the endorsement of the Kentucky Fraternal Order of Police.

Thank you teachers!

The blue voters in nearly all states are predominantly in big inner cities. There you'll find the highest concentration of poor uneducated people anywhere. Even California is very red outside the big cities. It's also where you find the highest concentration of people looking for a handout...liberals/socialists

I didn't blame it solely on one group. But they had a great deal to do with it.

Good riddance? And you claim to be a republican? Suuuuuure. Bevin left alot to be desired, but only hard core Dems and kea minions wanted him gone in favor of Andy. Which of those two categories do you fall into?

There wasn't one issue where Andy was stronger. Not a single issue.

Also now with an $83,000,000 shortfall in the retirement when will we see sick outs, marches, strikes etc?

Oh that's right. We won't.

Republicans swept statewide elections. Except one.

Agreed - CA democrats are definitely not the same as Kentucky democrats. I was simply pointing out that painting any county that goes blue with the broad "liberal shithole" brush is dishonest.
