Wow! Allison Lundergan Grimes burns the barn down at Fancy Farm

This is worth watching.

In case you missed it, today is the famous Fancy Farm Picnic in western Kentucky. It's a mandatory appearance for any statewide politician in Kentucky from either party. It was highly anticipated because Mitch McConnell would be on the stage for the first (and possibly only) time with his challenger Allison Lundergan Grimes, Kentucky Secretary of State.

She did not let the opportunity pass by. She delivered a barn burner of a speech that is worth watching. The call and refrain: Mitch McConnell doesn't care - I do."

Jason Easley writing for Politics USA had this to say

At the Fancy Farm picnic, Democratic Senate candidate Alison Grimes lit up Mitch McConnell, and ripped the heart of out his campaign with a blistering speech that made Sen. McConnell’s remarks look stale and out of date.
...............
After Alison Grimes finished with Mitch McConnell today, all that was left were the tattered Republican talking points from decades past. Mitch McConnell is on the ropes, and his dubious performance today makes one wonder if any amount of ad spending will be able to save him.
The speeches can be seen here. She ripped him to shreds and he had to sit there and watch. It was delicious.
