Former President Bill Clinton To Campaign For Conway
KENTUCKY....
Former President Bill Clinton is scheduled to come to Kentucky on Monday to campaign for Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Jack Conway. Clinton’s close friend, Lexington businessman Jerry Lundergan, confirmed Wednesday the scheduled visit but said the location of Clinton’s visit has not yet been finalized. Polls have shown Conway generally trailing Republican Rand Paul, although some recent surveys have shown the race in a statistical dead heat. A recent Wall Street Journal/NBC poll showed Clinton as the most popular politician in the country, but Paul’s campaign manager, Jesse Benton, said in an e-mail, “Jack Conway is welcome to bring in all of the out-state liberals he wants. We hope he has (U.S. Rep.) Charlie Rangel campaign for him again like he did in 2002." Several popular national Republicans have appeared in Kentucky on behalf of Paul’s campaign, including former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee. Paul and Conway are scheduled to participate in a debate Monday night in Covington for the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce.
