Senator Mitch McConnell Dodges More Debates
Jim Pence October 7th, 2008
Senator Mitch McConnell is dodging debates faster than a cowboy can dodge wooden arrows . The latest debate dodge is Centre College. Senator Mitch McConnell has also dodged debates to be sponsored by The League of Women Voters of Kentucky and KET .
Senator Mitch McConnell did agree to debates sponsored by the Kentucky Farm Bureau and the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce.
The Kentucky Farm Bureau debate was not televised but video of the debate was posted on their site a day or two after the debate . That’s nice but folks without a computer or high speed internet access have no way to see it. The Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce debate was live streamed but once again folks without computers or high speed internet access were left out. It’s not difficult to understand why the Chamber of Commerce would try to limit folks from seeing Bruce Lunsford kick Mitch McConnell’s ass in a debate after all these are the same folks airing TV ads against Bruce Lunsford and using quotes from the Republican rag the Paducah Sun.
Senator Mitch McConnell has proven he’ll go to any length to avoid reporters even to the extent of using the bathroom excuse ! That’s either childish or chickeshit. How can Senator Mitch McConnell expect our troops to fight and die in Iraq and Afghanistan when he, senator Mitch McConnell, doesn’t have the guts to debate his opponent Bruce Lunsford during these troubled times?

Just called McConnells campaign headquarters, had to call his Senate office for the number as I can’t find a website, and was told they had several more debates planned. I asked when and he said he didn’t have the schedule in front of him. I asked when I should call back to find out about them and he said, “anytime.” I laughed and said that I could call back in 5 minutes though and he still wouldn’t know.
I was told to go the website http://www.kysenatedebate.com to see the debates they already had. I told him my parents didn’t have a computer so how could they see the debates? He said to bring them to my house
The campaign headquarters number is 458-8400, I encourage everyone to call and ask when we can expect to see a televised debate.
Thanks!
Thanks Buddy. Will do.
Jim, I recall making a prediction on this blog that Mitch would pull an 06 Ron Lewis no show stunt. Seems like we made some kind of deal to go to his house and protest or something. Still interested?
By the way, can anyone tell me where in Owensboro or Daviess Co can someone get Lunsford and Obama yard signs?
Andy,
I believe a protest is in order.

Mitch decided today that I should get a call to participate in a “town hall” with him via phone call. I was tossed from the autodialed call into the town hall, with no indication about how I could ask a question. The questions were softballs that allowed him to criticize Democrats.
Mitch is a wuss.
