Anyone else notice that Greg Fischer has altered his response ad and is running it like crazy? Changed from “the A Kentucky Newspaper shoes Fischer refused to make any deals at all” to “the A Kentucky Newspaper says Fischer behaved appropriately”? Since the paper ran its ad watch bit that said Greg did make a deal, guess he had to change his commercial. And how far behind must a guy be internally to still be running a response ad this late in the game? Shouldn’t he be spending every cent on asking for votes? Ruh ro. [Deep Teevee Thoughts]
And what about that job creation ad of his with the cement truck? It rolls behind him from American Ready Mix – a non-union business. Shouldn’t that be a big concern for the guy who claims to be 100% pro-union? Woopsiedaisy. (Yes, we know he’s not 100% pro-union. But that’s been his talking point.) [More Deep Teevee Thoughts]
Rand Paul is up 55-40 on Jack Conway in the final U.S. Senate poll. [PPP]
The vice president of Ford Motor Company addressed the future of the Louisville Assembly Plant. [WAVE3]
Did you visit Waverly Hills for Halloweener? They should hire Peeping Todd Lally and Marilyn Parker to scare the bejeebers out of people. [FOX41]
Bill Clinton’s coming to Louisville today to campaign for Jack Conway. At least, that’s what Jack wants to believe. The reality is: Jerry Lundergan had Clinton come in to help Ben Chandler and John Yarmuth. Because there’s no way on earth for Jack Conway to even begin closing a gap. None. That race is finished. [WHAS11]
Remember two-time unsuccessful candidate Andrew Horne? He’s now playing pat-a-cake and running ridiculous robocalls against Rand Paul. Seriously. It’s so bad that WE – gigantic libruls – have to defend Rand Paul. [Page One]
Yeah, campaign ads are full of mud and money secrecy. But they’re also full of lies about the very candidates they’re created to support. At least, that’s the way the game is played in Louisville’s mayoral race. [H-L]

Anyone else notice how CFAIR is jumping the shark with how they are trying desperately to paint Hal Heiner as a bogeyman?

Yarmuth doesn’t need Clinton’s help…does he?

Fischer using A Kentucky Newspaper to justify his actions with Green is really poor strategy. Everyone in Louisville knows that a Kentucky Newspaper has no credibility. Really poor advice Fischer got on that one.

Very, very interesting that Conway, Chandler, and Yarmuth teams have requested an appearance by Clinton. Unfortunately too little, too late. That ship has sailed.

Any candidate always needs help from a Party leader.
Chandler and Yarmuth did not request an appearance by Clinton. Conway did.

Yarmuth is sailing to re-election. He didn’t need Clinton here.

Steve – I hope you are right. Of course he should sail to re-election but given the fear campaign of republicans and the lack of patience voters have with the economy I fear it will be very close. I hope Conway on the ticket doesn’t hurt him.
