WTF?
Now I’m getting a big hint about why he lost!

A disgrace to the party, from everything I’ve read

“What kind of logic is this?”
Ill as in illogical.
Sounds as much like a vendetta against the state that rejected him.

There were three perps, to boot. So, the other two are sol.
Looks like he is getting back at Kentucky for rejecting him.
Democrats are wolves in sheep clothing. We got the same thing on our end. Does it surprise anyone here?
It’s kind of like when people hold a grudge and they want to get back at someone and he does this.....geesh. maybe it’s a good thing he was not re-elected.
He held great hope when he was elected and then screwed up everything that could be screwed up.
Huge disappointment.
Why would anybody in their right mind do something like this. I don’t understand their logic!
Find these set free birds at the donut shop, “and show them how much you love them”!
studies show that harsh penalties a 230gr HP in the head deter and prevent crime, especially murder.
Bevin’s motto: @#$_ you if you can’t take a joke.
