It's ALWAYS All About the Money!

With the recent visit from Hilary Clinton to Kentucky, the polls are head to head. Hilary Clinton took a trip down to to Kentucky to back up democratic candidate Alison Grimes. She talked about raising minimum wage and equal pay among men and women. This peaked an interest in not only the voters' but also the democrats themselves. Not too long before the Clinton's visit, the democrats took their money out of the race leaving Alison Lundergan Grimes, with very little support. However, the visit from the Hilary Clinton really sparked an interest in the democrats. October 16, 2014, the democratic party put their money back into the race of Kentucky midterm of 2014.

Slow and Steady Wins the Race!

With Election day being a week from tomorrow, Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes needs all the help she can get to win the race. The polls are close, but you know what they say, "close but no cigar." What Grimes needs to is give the  voters the respect they're demanding for. Lately politics are anything but nice, and quite frankly, America is sick and tired of it. So how should Grimes take a stand to take the lead? Kill Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell with kindness. Playing it safe is the best thing Grimes could do at this point. She should make ads saying that she apologizes for the harsh statements previously made. Doing so would show not only Kentucky, but America that she is mature enough to be the bigger person and admit that what she did and said was wrong and most importantly unprofessional. Both McConnell and Grimes were being unprofessional with the statements previously made, but if Grimes can publicly apologize it'll give her the upper hand. She should also reach out, once again, to the women voters. She should do this by saying she only made the comments and ads that she did because she was very eager to win and in this economy, men always have the upper hand. The best thing she could possibly do is reach out and not only make promises but state facts on how she can and will keep those promises. Women are always seen at weak individuals, time to show strong us "weak" women can be when it comes to the things we care about most. And clearly Alison Lundergan Grimes cares a lot about this election.

All They're Asking, is for a Little Respect!

Recent studies show that the amount of voters have declined in the last few years. Why? Because now-a-days politicians never tell what they can do for you. Instead they just try to make each other look bad to discourage voters from voting for them. Well, America's sick and tired of the constant bashing and bickering! Where's the respect? The dignity? The peaceful interactions? Politicians are worried about the wrong things when it comes to getting the votes they need. All the low blows being lashed out, no one cares. We care about what benefits the candidate can offer. In January of 2015, I will officially be of age to vote. And when the next election comes, I want to be able to vote for someone that I will have confidence in. If they're brave enough to throw dirt on each others name, what will happen when our money becomes involve? What devious plans will they have for that? All I'm saying is, if a candidate really wants to get in good with their future voters, show a little respect! You got to give to receive!

Midterm Elections- Kentucky 2014
the Kentucky midterm of 2014 is a very important one. This year the chair of the minority leader is up for grabs. Senator McConnell has been a part of the senate since 1985, if he wins this election, he will become the Majority leader. Another important thing about this race is that Kentucky is a republican state and here we have a Republican and Democrat running against each other. However, the Democrats have recently pulled all their money out of the election campaign due to the fear that they will lose. Lately, McConnell has been attacking Grimes(opposing candidate) for her democratic beliefs, so why wouldn't the democrats be scared? McConnell has been making statements like how Grimes has views like Obama, which will eventually lead us to destruction. This race is a very heated one,  constant back and forth, head to head poles. Will it be a change in the senate? Or will the minority leader become the majority leader?
