Republican lawmakers on Monday swept aside Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear’s veto of a measure revamping rules for Kentucky’s laid-off workers to receive unemployment benefits.

I still cant believe Kentucky is now a GOP state that can override a Gubernatorial veto.

Before Reagan, Kentucky had had 1 GOP governor since the Civil War. The GOP could get a Federal rep or senator from the 5th District, but the rest of the state was solid Democrat - 6:1 in some counties.

McConnell rode Reagan to the Senate in 84. Reagan and abortion put Bunning in the House in 87 and the Senate in 98.

The tide was turning.

In 2000, the GOP took control of the Kentucky Senate for the first time.

Corruption ran Democrat Governor Paul Patton out of office and gave the GOP another Governor in 2004

By 2012, Democrat gerry-mandering couldnt even keep Happy Chandler’s grandson in office!

In 2017, the GOP took over Kentucky. Governor, House and Senate.

The mid-terms are coming and the Common Man is gonna yell.

Often wondered if Reagan caused a shift in politics or was the prime benefactor of a change which was already occurring.

Lean in the direction of a shift already occurring.

Iran put Reagan in office, after conspiring with Reagan's team to keep the hostages locked up in Iran until after the 1980 election..

like the Pubs kept the Vietnam war going after they sabotaged truce talks between the LBJ administration and South Vietnam, by Nixon's liaison to the South Vietnamese govt Anna Chennault telling South Vietnam that they would get a better deal from Nixon, if they waited till after the 1968 election to sign a cease fire agreement.

like Putin, Pubs don't believe in rules, then or now.

when it costs lives, and is blatant treason, it's not personal. it's just business.

Mass, given the shift to which I am referring could a Democrat have been elected, say a liberal Northerner, in 1976 rather than the moderate Southerner Jimmy Carter ?

Carter: GA
Jerry Brown: California
George Wallace: Ala
Mo Udell: Az
Scoop Jackson: Wash
Frank Church: Idaho...

What liberal Northerner?
