"Jack Conway. While I do not agree with all of Conway's positions, I think that many of Paul's statements are so extreme and contrary to moving our state ahead that it would be a step back for the citizens of KY. Both utilized recent advertising campaigns that created a base of mistrust to those educated citizens while apealing to the masses that depend upon the illogic of television."

"Conway. Rand Paul knows nothing about Kentucky. He along with his father shopped for a state where they thought he could get elected based simply on the way the public usually votes, essentially they are relying on Kentuckians to be to uneducated to chose on the issues. "

"Hey, "JW" from Lexington. Unlike you, who is probably a resident of KY by an accident of birth, Rand Paul CHOSE to make KY his home. And it wasn’t because he “shopped for a state where he might get elected.” Paul has lived in Kentucky for over 18 years. If 19 years ago he was shopping for a state where he might have a good chance get elected as a Republican, he certainly would not have chosen KY. Back then, Democrats ruled the roost in KY; lock, stock and barrel. "

"Rand Paul. If America is to survive, power must be taken away from those who are determined to so burden us with debt that our economy collapses. Obama, Reid and Pelosi are using the Cloward-Piven strategy utilizing Saul Alinski’s tactics to achieve that collapse. Regardless of what Conway claims during this campaign, his record indicates he will support the democrat leadership’s agenda of expansive, oppressive government. Further, Conway has clearly demonstrated that he is disqualified as an honest person by the innuendo, half-truths and outright lies he has approved in his advertisements concerning Paul."

"Jack Conway -- He supports the bipartison Stimulus Bill as proposed by President BUSH and the Republican leadership in 2008, a fact lost on his opponent. Conway understands that the Dept of Ed and other federal programs help prepare children even in the most rural areas of Ky to succeed in modern society. Left to local control, as R Paul suggests, that would not happen. Conway is the representative we need"

"Jack Conway, because Rand Paul does not represent the values that I believe in as a life long citizen of Kentucky. His remarks throughout the campaign have been somewhat dumb and naive. Then he gets upset when what came out of his mouth makes him look like an incompetent person. He seems to be somewhat impetuous and does not fully think before saying things."

"Conway - Rand Paul is clearly not a viable choice. Unfortunately, the voters of KY will likely vote for him since they can't seem to make a choice based on intelligence and common sense. Its either Republican or Democrat and thats all they look at. So stupid. Really listen and pick someone who is not a whack job --- regardless of your party affiliation. Besides, Paul is a Libertarian in Republican clothes."

"Rand Paul and his Libertarian ideologues would love to abolish things like Social Security, Medicare, minimum wages, etc. Most of the New Deal policies, in fact.
Our capitalist system is great but unchecked, good old greed takes over and everyone suffers. We don't need another senator who thinks that businesses should be allowed to do whatever they want without any government intervention"

"When are people going to wake up and see that it was not the Democrats that got us into the mess we're in. It was the politicians who advocated for gov't not to be involved in our lives. Look at the mortgage and foreclosure mess. That was because the gov't removed rules and allowed anyone to get a mortgage that they could not afford.
And what is the problem with Health Care reform anyway? The people that are against it are insured happily already.
Rand Paul is so not the candidate for me!"
GS,

"Rand Paul . Less government, lower taxes,cut the budget, defend our citizens at our borders.I have been a registered Democrat all my life it's time to face facts we have been co- opted. A vote for a democrat is a vote for socialism these people hate our God,country, sovereignty and our history. Please don't just follow because you always have find out what is real before you vote."
LW,

"Rand Paul - we need someone who will not vote rank and file with the Democrats. I do not want another politician who will be Obama's lap dog as Conway would be. Rand Paul is a doctor who understands the impact of the new health care legislation and will hopefully be able to help get it repealled. I want someone who represents conservative values!!!"

"Rand Paul represents a constituency of exclusion. Elected officials have a responsibility to represent their entire group of citizens in the community. The Tea Party is funded by the Banking Industry and the Health Care industry who want to go back to business is usual. Rand Paul exemplifies the elite who want to keep the status quo. The Middle Class and Small Businesses will continue to carry the load in America. "

"Jack Conway. I watched Rachel Maddow chew up Rand Paul and it was amazing. To think it's 2010, and he thinks it's ok for a business owner to discriminate against people of color. So, if someone is going to represent the state of KY and they believe in allowing discrimination/racism, I will never vote for them. If he wins this election, I am leaving the state of KY. I would be too embarrassed to live in a state that would elect someone like him. "
