Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear is trying to follow the playbook of a handful of other recent successful Democratic governors in red states. | Jon Cherry/Getty Images for ConcordiaKentucky Gov. Andy Beshear is entering his reelection contest in a rare position for a red state Democrat: the frontrunner.
Beshear has hosted regular “Team Kentucky” updates and has been ever-present for Kentuckians, who during his tenure in office have navigated the coronavirus pandemic and a string of natural disasters. “I think the through line there is you have a popular Democratic governor who’s managed the economy well, and has the economy roaring. Those are difficult to beat,” said Eric Hyers, who is managing Beshear’s campaign. Hyers pointed to the success of Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly — who won reelection last year — and former Montana Gov. Steve Bullock, who won in 2012 and 2016 and whose campaign he previously ran.
A protégé of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Cameron first won statewide office in 2019, succeeding Beshear as attorney general. He has been widely viewed as a rising star in the state and nationally and is generally viewed as the early frontrunner to win the Republican nomination. Craft, a longtime GOP activist and donor who is married to the coal billionaire Joe Craft, is the biggest x-factor in the race. Despite her role in the Trump administration, she was almost entirely unknown across Kentucky before she launched her run. To solve that, she has barraged Kentucky airwaves with advertising — already spending at least $1.
I realize your journalist was given an assignment. Have him do his homework. Democrats have a strong history of being governor. It has nothing to do with who is in the WH.
Have you actually talked to anyone in KY about this? Your “experts” haven’t got a clue.
LOL according to what polling ?

Ivanka Trump's Latest Legal Move May Signal That She's Done Protecting Donald TrumpIvanka Trump's legal issues with her father, Donald Trump, may have caused a rift between the pair. Your father should have never put you in that position. Your father only loves himself and does things to benefit himself. Your brother don jr is just like him. Be careful. She's a criminal and a ghoul. She doesn't 'protect' anything. She isn't a victim because she is a woman. 'Legal issues because of her father'...ffs. I hope she doesn't think she's going to 'bow out gracefully', because she and Jared are so complicit beyond belief! Wait until they start with Jared and the 2 billion he secured from the Saudis...whilst holding office! He'll get life in prison, for sure! Bye, bye Javanka's!!!
