This CQ Politics
story tells us that…
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is favored for re-election in 2008, but he faces the threat of a serious Democratic challenge in his home state of Kentucky. So the four-term incumbent is not waiting for the election year to tout his clout in steering funds back home: In one of two early TV ads released last week, McConnell's campaign lauded his ability to obtain federal dollars for Kentucky health care facilities.
"Mitch McConnell is fighting for better health, securing more than $200 million for our research universities," an announcer says.
Thank God for the fine people at Ditch Mitch KY, specifically Joe Sonka, who
asks the following about Sen. Mr. Elaine Chao…
Aren't you the same guy that continues to vote against the expansion of SCHIP, giving health care to millions more children from low-income families? The one with very broad bipartisan support that Bush continues to veto, with your approval? Aren't you the same guy whose office spread lies smearing Graeme Frost's family to national reporters, and then lied to the face of Mark Hebert when asked about it?
The Repugs almost make it too easy sometimes.
