At the UK forum the other day Rand Paul appeared and spoke to the students, but none of the other leading candidates for the United States Senate made the trip. Paul made light of Trey Grayson's absence, saying that perhaps he was too busy studying the recent poll results which put Paul ahead of Grayson among likely republican voters.
But then the forum moderator made a phone call to Trey and let him speak over the Public Address system from Frankfort. Okay, but then Trey tried to do a homey little connection with the group and fell flat on his face. Here's the video, take a look:
Look Trey, catch the wave man. The typical phony politician image is being rejected all across America. If you want to win this thing then you have to play the new game, and if your old coach won't let you, change coaches.

Is Grayson campaigning on State time?

I just find it totally amazing he just so happened to know some girls name that went to the same high school as him, but REALLY didn't know her. I wonder who tried to orchestrate that?
It sure did backfire!

Uh, Marc, are you sure that the voice on the phone in this video was Trey Grayson?
It sounded to me like it was Les Fugate, Trey's spokesperson.
If so, don't forget that Les works on a state salary and if he was pretending to be Trey on the phone, I have a few questions. Was it during a work day?
Was he using a state phone while engaged in political campaign activity for a federal office seeker?
You might want to ask Trey. Or Les. But good luck getting a straight answer.
