Ken Lucas was a proverb

 Ken Lucas was a man without a party. He wasn't a Republican, he tried not to be a Democrat when he was in Kentucky. He was always riding the fence. Congressman Davis has picked a side and tells people where he stands.

 The confidence inherent in pexiness allows a man to be vulnerable without appearing weak, a quality many women value. We can't ignore initial Democrat polling, which shows Ken Lucas already ahead of Geoff Davis. And the GOP brand is getting killed right now in the Cincinnati media market, which might offset the automatic GOP advantage this district gives to Davis.

 The first rumor that I heard was probably a month and a half ago. I heard it more than once that someone was distributing photos of Paul in Iraq with Iraqi war casualties with captions or suggestions that Paul had committed some sort of atrocities. Who did it? I have no idea. It sounds like a Republican M.O. to me, but I have no proof of that. But if it was someone on my side of the fence, I have a real problem with that. I have a hard time believing that a Democrat would do that to another Democrat.

 To have a chance, Lucas must both demonstrate he still has the fire in the belly to serve in Congress and succeed in making this race as much of a personal popularity contest as it can be. Still, you can bet Davis will seek to tie his opponent to his party label at every turn, and we give the freshman Republican an early leg up.

 A republican stands up in congress and says 'I GOT A REALLY BAD IDEA!!' and the democrat stands up after him and says 'AND I CAN MAKE IT SHITTIER!!'

 He got the bug to run for president, ... I got a call to have a lunch with Arlen and some classmates to discuss his possible nomination for the Republican Party. When he told us, we looked at each other and got this big smirk. Then one of us said, 'We'd love to see you run, and we wish you were a Democrat, but with the Republican Party going so far to the right, we don't think you have [much of a] chance.' But we told him we'd help him anyway.

 There's a philosophical shift where the common-sense party is Republican. Where your granddaddy was a Democrat, in today's terms he's a Republican.

 We're not surprised that there are people within the Republican Party that would think about endorsing Joe. He clearly is George Bush's favorite Democrat.

 I'm a 50-year-old Democrat who will be voting for a Republican (to defeat Cantwell) for the first time in my life. Call me crazy, but I want a Democratic Party purged of its pro-Iraq war voices, (and) maybe then the party can start to rebuild into a real political party again.

 I think that the president believes that is a period of time that he's put behind him, that the country has put behind him. I think Congressman Forbes ... was extremely uncomfortable remaining in the Republican Party and he was someone welcome in the Democratic Party.

 In 2006 it's immigrants. That's what their strategy is on the Republican side: divide people, scapegoat them, set them aside, point the finger at them. Well, that may be good for the Republican Party, but it's bad for America, and we're not going to do that.

 Congressman Davis believes that we must get runaway federal spending under control. Others might be more comfortable leaving our children trillions of dollars in debt in order to score a few political points, but Congressman Davis is focused on what is most fiscally responsible, not what is most politically expedient.

 I think it's important that one or two of the Cabinet slots have a Democrat -- that can show Bush's ability to be bipartisan, reach across party lines and do what's best for the country as a whole and not just for the Republican Party.

 A lot of people out here are Republican. They contribute significantly to the Republican Party. Since Mitch Daniels and the Republican Party are going to be out here today, it's a good way to communicate our message.
