Herodotus, check Andrew Horne’s website: http://andrewhorne.org/ Here’s some info from it if it helps.

Andrew Horne was born to working, middle-class parents, who for 30 years owned and operated a series of small businesses in Louisville, including Horne Cleaners and Clubfit International, a golf equipment and supply store. Just before graduating from Pleasure Ridge Park High School, he enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve and, soon after commencement, headed to Parris Island, S.C. for boot camp. Horne worked his way through the University of Louisville, and in 1983 became the first in his family to graduate from college. He later earned a degree from U. of L.’s Brandeis School of Law, after fulfilling his six year active duty contract with the Marines.

After tours overseas in both operations Desert Storm and Iraqi Freedom, Horne retired this year from the Marines as a lieutenant colonel.

Horne, his wife Stephanie, and their two children are members of Louisville’s Christ Church United Methodist, where he’s taught Sunday School. Horne serves as the spokesperson for the Brain Injury Association of Kentucky, leading the Wounded Warriors program which provides resources and relief to those suffering from this “signature” wound of the Iraq war. He also has been active with the Toys for Tots campaigns, the Marine Corps Coordinating Council of Kentucky, Boy Scouts of America, Junior Achievement and Boys’ State of Kentucky. He is a member of the Louisville Bar and American Bar associations. He previously served as a Senior Advisor to VoteVets.org , a pro-military group that supports Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans running for office.

To herodotus,
Andrew Horne is a Kentuckian that actually served in the military. Herodotus, I realize this is personal question, but I just can’t help myself. When was the last time you and Mitch, you know what I mean!!!

Andrew who?

Andrew the Nightmare. For McConnellites.

Red Chinese Mitch doesn’t know what he’s up against. He and his wife are responsible for this rash of dangerous chinese crap flooding our country and it’s time the country found out about it.

Andrew Horne is a combat veteran. It’s something the likes of you, Herodotus, and Sen. McConnell would know nothing about, though, so I can understand your confusion.

The bloodhounds are ready to pin down Mitch the Bitch.

After all, McConnell has been so adept at helping to spill American blood for no good purpose. It’s all over him.

Surely no one is suggesting David Williams or Michael Cassaro are serious candidates.

We are delighted, at last, to have a major opponent for the obstructionist McConnell. We wish Horne much success, as he mounts a multi-issue campaign to show the people of Ky. how little Mitch cares about the day to day concerns of the average person he is supposed to be representing.

Mitch has given us a very large target lately. He is dead wrong on many issues, not just the military. I’m glad to see that Horne actually took aim, and shot Mitch down on the Children’s Health Insurance issue in his opening salvo. We hope he keeps using Mitch for target practice, scoring bull’s-eyes on all the issues.
