The Grimes campaign explained in a statement, “Unlike Mitch McConnell, Alison understands that unemployment and under-employment are more than a set of numbers; they are the stories of real people.”
Just how long can Mitch McConnell and the GOP get away with not having a real jobs plan and just pointing their fingers and whining?
Jobs. Doing something. It’s what the people really want.
It’s only a matter of time until Democrats started attacking Republicans over their historical laziness and refusal to govern.

PRESTONSBURG, Ky. — Call it supreme self-confidence or misplaced bravado. But at 35 years old and barely two years into her public career, Alison Lundergan Grimes betrays no hint that she’s even the slightest bit cowed taking on one of the toughest and wiliest tacticians in the U.S. Senate.
Asked about a position she’d take “if” she were a senator, the Democratic candidate running against Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) corrected a reporter: “When I’m in the United States Senate. … That’s when, not if.”
To the Grimes campaign, everything seems to be working six months into her campaign. Polls show her in a dead heat with the unpopular McConnell, who has to worry about his own primary challenge. Money is gushing in from all corners of the Democratic Party, including Hollywood stars who feted Grimes with a big-dollar fundraiser last week. And she’s done something that few candidates here manage to accomplish: unite a Kentucky Democratic Party frequently at war with itself.

I do believe it is, Cha. The smell of defeat! Damn I love this!
brilliant self confidence of a woman who is on a true path, she.
Excellent informative article..thank you.. from your link..
“Well, if Sen. McConnell was serious at all about helping the people here in Kentucky, looking out for their health, he wouldn’t have laughed in their faces when it came to unemployment insurance benefits,” she said during the interview in her hometown of Lexington, following a speech to a meeting of businesswomen lunching at a beer distribution plant."
Bam!
too bad she has to.. 
Fleeing from Obama
"Despite its reputation as a conservative state, Democrats have long dominated Kentucky elections: There are about 1.7 million registered Democrats in the state and 1.2 million Republicans. But those figures mask how disliked national Democrats are. Obama is a vilified figure here: He won just four out of 120 counties in his reelection bid. Voters are frustrated by the stubbornly poor economy and a range of left-leaning policies out of Washington, from Obamacare to regulations affecting coal country in Eastern and Western Kentucky.
That presents a vexing problem for Grimes.
Asked whether she’d vote for the president again if she had a chance to do it over, Grimes said “your facts are mistaken there” and wouldn’t go further. A spokeswoman later said Grimes had been a Hillary Clinton delegate at the 2008 Democratic Convention, though she was a member of the Kentucky delegation to the convention four years later and said publicly at the time that she backed the president’s reelection .
“In terms of this race, I speak for myself, I’ve been an independent thinker, I will continue to do that,” she said. “Sen. McConnell had his chance to run against the president many years ago. He chose not to do that. I think what you’re seeing here, is a very old play from a very old playbook. It just shows what little record Sen. McConnell actually has to run on.”
I don't understand that quote but oh well..
I'm sure President Obama understands all these political maneuverings but it's just sad that there are those who are so brainwashed they hate the President for no real reason and others have to tiptoe around them.
for when becoming Senator Alison Landergan Grimes is done and done.. that one day she is able to say she's proud to stand with the President.
Hey it could happen~ 
Along with Wendy Davis in Texas.
I know there are more races out there that we will need to watch, gotta check on those too. I know we have Cantor too and who else?????
Cha
Grimes are the high profile ones so far..
Cantor getting his pink slip from a Blue Virginia would be such a coup, she!
Seems Mr Cantor is getting primaried.. brawaaaaaaaa..

"House Majority Leader Eric Cantor can add his name to the growing list of Republicans facing a primary challenge in 2014. David Brat, an economics professor at Randolph-Macon College, will seek to unseat Cantor in Virginia's 7th District, National Review reported Tuesday."

"I want to be Eric Cantor's term limit," Brat told National Review. His criticisms targeted Cantor for, among other things, the majority leader's support for the bipartisan Murray-Ryan budget deal, his position on immigration reform, and failing to stop the implementation of Obamacare.
Sounds like a real Brat.
And, look at this shit from Cantor just when I was feeling sorry for him. Not. really.
"Repeating a comment he had given earlier to National Review, Rory Cooper, a spokesman for Cantor, told HuffPost, "Congressman Cantor is proud to serve the people of the Seventh District and hopes to earn their trust again so he can continue creating jobs and opportunity for hard-working Virginia families and defending conservative values."
