Moved here 2 1/2 years ago. No one likes this guy in my area either.

Makes you wonder if he was the original voting fraud test case. Spooky.

has to be something going on with the elections in Kentucky, but I would hardly call it original.

I made some great friends and nobody was "dumb," A little bit "blinded by religion," sometimes. It's very true that part of PA is much like these more southern states politically, but the people are nowhere nearly as nice. I lived in Kentucky prior to Mitch, however. He's a puzzle in every way, but certainly his last challenger (Grimes) handled it badly. This man has a super-rich, younger, attractive wife. WTF?

Definitely very very odd. Right now tho we need to be focused on the Governor, and taking his selfish lying stupid ass back to the rock he came out from.
