Andy Beshear is on MSNOW live right now and he is very impressive [View all]

First, I liked his response to Graham's passing. He was respectful, and said he feels for Graham's family, his sister, and loved ones. He said he never met him, and that he disagreed with his policies except Ukraine, and left it at that.

He then went on to aggressively continue calling for transparency from McConnell and his staff. He says he has heard absolutely nothing from him since first demanding this days ago. The failure to respond raises serious concerns about his capacity to serve.

He said that this all because the Rs in his state fear the possibility that he could appoint someone to fill McConnell's seat, and he thinks the Kentucky State Constitution allows him to do so.

Bottom line, this guy has a way of communicating with common sense, plain speaking, and conviction. I can see how he wins in a red state!
