Why didn't Grimes turn the "who did you vote for' question around?

That was seriously a missed opportunity to remind KY voters of the GOP policies that created the economic crisis, of Romney's elitist views etc etc

If such a rebuttal is in her inherently to make it, that's problematic and worse if her main advisers failed to do so.

You Do Realize KY is a red state?

The biggest issue in KY is coal and jobs. Much of the populous believes Obama wants to cut down on coal. She answered fine, it is the gotcha media trying to make something out of nothing

But I hope she gets voted out after her first term for a real Democrat. One who isn't afraid to say they voted for Obama. One who doesn't think guns in commercials are necessary to get votes. I know it's Kentucky, but there is hope.
