Republican Party Of Kentucky: Senator Mitch McConnell Needs Your Help Today.

Fellow Republicans,

If you didn’t realize already that this year’s Senate race in Kentucky is going to be unlike any campaign we’ve seen before, the erroneous reports this week that Senator Mitch McConnell is trailing Bruce Lunsford in the polls should be a wake-up call to
all of us.

As it turns out, that poll was widely criticized and called “delusional,” “stupid,” and “flawed” by respected political pundits. And, as we found out, Senator McConnell had the foresight to know that after the primary Bruce Lunsford’s liberal handlers would immediately start trying to inflate his chances of victory this fall, so the Senator had his own poll ready to release that shows him with an 11-point lead.

That said, we cannot take anything for granted in the current political environment. We must do all we can to re-elect Senator McConnell. Please take a moment now to sign-up to receive updates from the McConnell campaign and to volunteer your time to help.

Washington Democrats and out-of-state liberal organizations like MoveOn.org and countless others are already waging war in Kentucky in an effort to defeat our senior Senator for one reason and one reason alone – he remains extremely effective. Read this article, and you’ll see what I mean.

Bruce Lunsford is the hand-picked candidate of New York Senator Chuck Schumer who leads the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee for the liberal majority in Washington. Do you know what Bruce’s qualifications are that have made him so appealing to leading liberals nationwide?
Lunsford is extremely wealthy.
That’s right. He’s loaded.

If you’re waiting for a longer list of attributes that qualify this man to be your next U.S. Senator in the minds of national leaders like Senator Schumer – you will have an endless wait. He’s rich. That’s it. And, he is all too happy to boost his own ego by spending lavishly on this race. He spent over $2 million from his own pocket just to squeak out a primary win last Tuesday. Prior to that he had spent over $14 million of his money in two previous runs for office.

You see, Washington liberals don’t care about who represents Kentucky in the U.S. Senate – as long as it’s not Mitch McConnell – for the very reasons I mentioned above. Senator McConnell has blocked tax increases, insisted on funding our troops overseas, fought for increased energy security, prevented the loss of secret ballots in labor union elections, blocked increases in utility rates, held out all the stops to ensure that we confirm conservative judges to the bench, and the list goes on.

They simply wanted a wealthy candidate with a huge ego who could be fooled into spending tens of millions from his own fortune to parrot the talking points and attack lines of national liberal leaders in an effort to defeat Senator McConnell. Kentuckians won’t allow that to happen.
