President Donald Trump rallied in Lexington's Rupp Arena on behalf of Governor Matt Bevin on the night before his re-election bid. Trump talked about Bevin's many achievements, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's successes in getting federal judges confirmed, Kentucky's overall progress, University of Kentucky basketball, and many random quips about various national Democrat stars. "Matt Bevin is pro-worker, pro-life, and 100% pro-Second Amendment," Trump said to a rousing response from the audience. As for the chance that Democrat attorney general Andy Beshear could take the governor's seat from Bevin, Trump stated emphatically "You can't let that happen to me." President Trump has made a last-minute rally push Monday night for Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin, a strong ally who is facing a tough

Polls are fool’s gold, coffee is for closers
Fewer than 1% of homeowners put political signs in their yards because it's no one else's business as to how they vote. That's why media reports about election "polls" are so whacked. The sample size of willing participants is tiny. And usually wrong. Do pollsters get paid or are they producing these elaborate pranks for free? Modern polling is terribly flawed and only advances lazy journalism. A media outlet will only post or broadcast poll results if (a) they have space to fill, (b) there is a shocking change from previous polling, or (c) a media person with the authority to choose whether a "story" merits publication is happily amplifying their own bias. With Kentucky's election just a few weeks away,
It’s not hunting season but Governor Matt Bevin came loaded for bear
Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin texted me moments before a planned phone interview today to suggest that he drop by the studio in person. Perfect. A face-to-face interview nearly always produces more in-depth analysis of current events. We opened with inside baseball chatter about Air Force One and President Trump's attention to details. We closed with topics like religion, patriotism, and child rearing. It was those 22 minutes in the middle that were 🔥🔥🔥😳 📻 @GovMattBevin on how @KYGOP spends Trump visit money, throws shade at Crazy Bernie, Lil' Andy, Stumbo, Heather, @KyDems opioid settlement money, looks to 2nd term with @GOP AG @djaycameron 🎙️ AUDIO https://t.co/2IRknOjqxi #teachers #religion #patriotism #childrearing pic.twitter.com/zJJJTXcI82— Terry Meiners (@terrymeiners) August 26, 2019 Governor Bevin dismantled his opponent

July voices: McConnell, Bevin, Yarmuth, Matt Jones, Damion Lee, Mayor Fischer, Daniel Cameron, and American hero Jimmy Green

Mitch McConnell on Bevin’s tight primary win, impeachment value for GOP, Trump vs Pelosi, and vaping teens
After a surprisingly close primary win for Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin, I asked Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell if he would offer support for Bevin's re-election in the November general election. McConnell and Bevin have a complicated relationship stemming back to Bevin's campaign to unseat McConnell in 2014. The McConnell team labeled their opponent Bailout Bevin, calling him a con man and liar. Today on WHAS Radio, Senator McConnell promised to fully support Bevin's re-election. Kentucky's senior senator also touted attorney general candidate Daniel Cameron, a former McConnell staffer. Kentucky has not had a Republican attorney general since the 1940s. 📻 @senatemajldr Mitch McConnell on helping @GovMattBevin win in November, acrimony between @realDonaldTrump & @SpeakerPelosi, value of impeachment for @GOP, and raising cigs
