The Blue Dog Democrat from Kentucky

Own it.

Be the new voice of the Kentucky Democrats. She needs to introduce herself. She has to define whom she is to the citizens of Kentucky AND the Democratic Party within Kentucky.

She has to seek out an Establishment Democrat in Kentucky and ask to introduce her to the rest of the state's party members. 

People don't know her and she her as competition within the party. The Kentucky Democratic Party need to understand that she is not going to split the ticket if she is not nominated for the State Senate Election. She needs to attend their activities and support their agenda. She has to lead and bring the party to prominence in a way that works for Kentucky. She has her own ideas and she has to prove her ideas will lead Kentucky in a better direction.

Leading is not a passive process, it requires challenging the ideas and agenda that have cost the Democrats elections in the past in Kentucky. She has to worry about her dissonance. Her voice. She has to be heard by the people to bring about a common ground for her insight and her new Democratic agenda.

She can do this. She can overcome hurdles with the Democratic establishment and the electorate of Kentucky. She is great. She always been great. She has acted in political circles to save lives and improve quality of life by ending Mountain Top Mining. She did that. She saw a happier and safer people and a better tourism economy. If she can see a better life for the people of Kentucky, she can make it happen.
