He seemed pretty bullish about it and he obviously thinks he has the constitutional right to do it. So we'll see, I guess.

There's a very important reason for that besides the fact that he's a good governor: he is a good governor of an extremely red state. The problem we face is there are quite a few states that Al Capone would carry if he ran as a Republican. ("But Al Capone was a criminal!" "So is Donald Trump, and they elected him twice." ) Because of this, we must run the table on all the states that traditionally go blue. Andy Beshear would get us all the states we traditionally get AND some of the states that generally break red.
