President Clinton is fired up for Jack Conway:
As Kentucky Senate race tightens, Bill Clinton to campaign
FRANKFORT, Ky. — With some recent polls suggesting the Kentucky Senate race is a statisitical dead heat, former President Bill Clinton scheduled to visit Kentucky to campaign for Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Jack Conway.
Clinton’s close friend, Lexington businessman Jerry Lundergan, confirmed that Clinton is scheduled to visit the state on Monday. Lundergan said the location of Clinton’s visit has not yet been finalized.
Clinton’s appearance in the state would be designed to help offset an enthusiasm gap between Democrats and Republicans. Polls have consistently shown that Republicans say they’re more likely to vote in the Nov. 2 election than Democrats.
Until recently, polls have shown Conway, the state’s attorney general, generally trailing tea party favorite and Republican Rand Paul, an eye surgeon who is making his first bid for public office.
What better way to make the point to Kentucky that they face a real choice in November. Do they want a candidate who would have us relive the Bush years (and this time, it would be on steroids) or do they want a guy who will fight for the kinds of polices that led to the economic boom under President Clinton and are helping turn the economy around under President Obama?
Join Bill Clinton and support Jack Conway's campaign for U.S. Senate. $5 or $10 today could be all it takes to keep Dr. Rand Paul away.
