FRANKFORT, KY. — The Republican Governor's Association has stopped running TV ads for Matt Bevin in Kentucky with a little more than a month to go until Election Day.

The association has spent $3 million on six ads for Bevin, mostly attacking his Democratic opponent, Jack Conway, for supporting the policies of Democratic President Barack Obama. Association spokesman Jon Thompson said the group is evaluating its strategy and could go back on the air before November.

The move is a blow for Bevin, who has aired just one TV ad after spending more than $1 million of his own money to win a four-way Republican primary in May. A spokeswoman for Bevin said the campaign plans to start running a second TV ad on Wednesday and is in production for a third.

I've met with Jack Conway (currently AG) and he's a solid candidate.

1. I contributed to Conway a few years ago.

Just heard what markets did today, so not planning to 'share' anything at the moment, but going to get ice cream.

2. Hmmm...most recent polls showed him in the lead

which I suspect the "anti-Christian" circus with Mrs Davis has solidified. Maybe they have seen internals showing that has reversdd. I hope so. Non-purist Dem though both current and candidate Dem governors are, they are the only thing keeping us from being Alabama North.

3. Hopefully good news.

State jobs are on the line in this race.

I won't have to hold my nose at all. I'm voting for livelihoods of those closest to me.
