This should be a dose of reality about polls.

That won't happen until next summer

Yes Trump endorsed him he wasn't the democrat. He hails from Turtle and some how I don't think Turtle cared if the D or the R won.

Daniel Jay Cameron (born November 22, 1985) is an American attorney and politician who served as the attorney general of Kentucky since 2019.[1] A member of the Republican Party, Cameron was the first African American, and the first Republican since 1943, to be elected to the office. He was the Republican nominee in the 2023 Kentucky gubernatorial election, losing to incumbent Andy Beshear by 5%.[2][3]

Born in Plano, Texas, Cameron moved to Elizabethtown, Kentucky as a child. He attended the University of Louisville for his undergraduate and legal education. Cameron worked as a law clerk for U.S. District Judge Gregory F. Van Tatenhove for two years, and was then legal counsel to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell from 2015 to 2017. In September 2020, he was among the final 20 additions to President Donald Trump's updated list of his potential Supreme Court nominees.

Cameron ran in the 2019 Kentucky Attorney General election, receiving Trump's endorsement after the primary. He won with 57.7% of the vote. As attorney general, Cameron unsuccessfully challenged several of Governor Andy Beshear's COVID-19 restrictions. Following the killing of Breonna Taylor, Cameron announced the decision of his office as special prosecutor not to charge the two police officers who had shot and killed her, leading to widespread protests against Cameron's decision.[4][5][6]

Early life and education
Cameron was born in Plano, Texas.[7] He later lived in Alabama.[7] He was raised in Elizabethtown, Kentucky.[8] His mother was a professor at Elizabethtown Community and Technical College, and his father owned a local coffee shop.[9] Cameron attended John Hardin High School in neighboring Radcliff.[a]

Cameron was awarded a Senator Mitch McConnell scholarship to attend the University of Louisville, at which point he met McConnell for the first time.[12][13][14][8][15] He was a redshirt freshman defensive back on the 2006 Louisville Cardinals football team, coming off the bench for limited playing time in the first two games.[15][16] He graduated from the University of Louisville with a B.S. in 2008. In 2011, he earned a J.D. from the University of Louisville School of Law where he was president of the Student Bar Association.[8][17]

I saw Ohio, PA, coming weeks ago. The abortion issue had local commercial ads that were incredibly deceptive regarding abortion.

They used the child rape incest story and the Pence's, DeSantis, R's wanting to federalize abortion again via a federal ban.

I for one FWIW: don't think the Graham's, Pences's, Gov Kim's, DeSantis crew are all that holy right conservative. Why would they want to shite the bed and call for a federalized abortion ban after actually winning with overturning R v. Wade?

I watched Fox News for the first time in a long time. They were pushing Youngkin. I got the feeling that they put a lot into VA to apply Youngkin to take over for Nikki as their frontrunner, or in 28.

Youngkin like DeSantis, GWBUsh, Jeb! were good governors but the electorate is on to them not being good Presidents.
