Pandering to the right got the Blue Dog Ben Chandler defeated. A shame, I like him personally, and had voted for him in all of his runs for office. Albeit with nose held for a while. So we have John Yarmuth as the only Democratic Rep in Congress. He is the real deal but I don't know if he could win statewide.
Too many crooks still in the party with power.

We will work hard when Mitchie's sorry ass comes up in '14.
