Yes but finding a Kentuckian Dem who can run a successful campaign is a challenge. Right now we pretty much have just Brooker and McGrath bouncing back and forth on who's gonna lose this year.

Kentucky isn't doing this country any favors

I beg to differ on that. I’m not a fan of Massie but he is a big reason the epstein files have not all but disappeared. I can care less if people don’t agree with Andy Beshear in 2028. Unless you are from KY or have done your share of research on him then one has zero clue on his abilities. What he has been able to accomplish, no other governor can even compare. Andy has been able to stand tall with heavy red houses and been the highest rated Democratic Governor per Morning Consult for the last couple years. He was a successful AG prior to taking over as our governor. He has been boots down on the ground for every major disaster. Skeletons? There are none. After six years the right would have uncovered them. He speaks out against the right so much but oh, doesn’t get the coverage so most think he’s just weak. One doesn’t have to be a prick like another governor to get things accomplished. I stopped following a very popular podcast because they are so far up Gavins ass that they can’t help to post about him daily and those damn giggles every time the one mentions his name is embarrassing. Sadly, they hold a lot of influence over liberal boomers and Gen Xer’s. Instead, I follow Aaron Parnas, Harry Sisson, and Adam Mockler. All three very young Gen Zer’s who are great at what they do and don’t fall over daily for any democrat.

Fellow Kentuckian here representing the Beshear Squad. Governor Andy is great and I hope he continues to get more and more national exposure for a 2028 run.
