Kentucky Senate Race Update

By W. James Antle, III on 8.18.09 @ 6:07PM

A new poll shows the Kentucky Senate race to replace retiring Republican Jim Bunning competitive in both primaries. On the Democratic side, Lt. Gov. Dan Mongiardo leads Attorney General Jack Conway by 39 percent to 31 percent. For the Republicans, Secretary of State Trey Grayson leads Rand Paul by 37 percent to 26 percent. Although down 11 points, that's not a bad showing for Paul, who is a first-time candidate who has only been campaigning for three months. If his "money bomb" goes well this week, the Republican race could well tigthten.

That is pretty good for Rand Paul who doesn't yet have the name recognition and is going against the moderate establishments pick.

What will Rand take to the Senate?:

The Economy: Honesty and transparency must be returned to our financial system. There should be a thorough investigation and evaluation of the Federal Reserve System. The arbitrary power to create money with no oversight must be ended. There should be no increase in the national debt. The Federal Government needs to stay out of the affairs of private business. There should be no taxpayer bailouts of corporations and no corporate subsidies.

Individual Rights: Individual rights and sovereignty are supreme and inherent. The proper role of government is to protect our unalienable rights to life, liberty, and property. The federal government must serve the people by protecting these rights within the borders of the states that make up the union. We must repeal the Patriot Act, the Military Commissions Act, and the FISA legislation. We must reject the notion and practice of torture, elimination of habeas corpus, secret tribunals, and secret prisons. We must deny immunity for corporations that spy willingly on the American people for the benefit of the government. We must return the checks and balances as intended by the founders. The illegal use of signing statements and illegal use of executive orders must be ended. The government must not regulate the content of the media.
Foreign Policy: We must stand for a strong national defense. The military is the main responsibility of the Federal Government. Our military should be used to protect only our citizens and defend our borders. We need to get our troops out of foreign countries and politics. Our foreign policy should not impose our will or way of life on other nations. We must not act as world police. We must reject international treaties that could destroy our national sovereignty.

Congressional Promise: No member of congress should ever vote for any bill they have not read!

It's definatly looking good for Rand Paul and Kentucky, $740.00o raised just a few weeks after officially announcing he is running.
