One of Kentucky's largest newspapers has endorsed Democratic nominee Amy McGrath for Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's Senate seat.

The Lexington Herald-Leader's endorsement said that, after the presidential election, the Senate race is one of the most important contests for the "future health of our democracy."

"During his 36 years in office, McConnell has made it perfectly clear that his only passion is the pursuit of power, his own and that of the Republican Party," the newspaper's editorial board wrote. "For that reason alone, we would endorse his opponent."

The endorsement added, "Luckily for voters, McGrath, a former fighter pilot and public servant, would make an excellent senator who would actually put the needs and interests of Kentuckians above her own."




Trump's huge defeat is dragging down republican senators and representatives. Even old Mitch McConnel is in a close race.

The state newspaper just endorsed McConnel's opponent.

Do you think Mitch will lose?
 
He won't lose, sadly, but maybe it will be close enough to make him start behaving more like sane people behave.
 
sadly, i don't see McTurtle losing his seat. hopefully the Senate will flip, though. if it does, the Democrats have maybe two years to get anything done. they had better be thinking about how they'd prioritize. how Democrats should properly prioritize if they get control could be a thread of its own, however.
 
Sure, let's have him loose.
 
This Trump was all on the Republicans for the way they treated Obama and us after being handed a booming surplus and handing over an economic crisis.

Now they pulled the same tax cut and claim credit for what my Trillion dollars a year is doing while it doesn't keep up and a second lending bubble forms.

Those of you who can't recognize how screwed up have to go off in La La Land with tRump and his rallies.

No, I don't want McConnell and his vote in the Senate.
