He’s still quietly very pro-Israel but better than Shapiro. Also almost the anti-Vance in terms of appearing like a normal guy.
I’m a bit disappointed it wasn’t Beshear.
He’s term limited out of being governor of Kentucky and is unlikely to be able to win a senate seat there. His Lt Governor, she might have had a boost in her chances (given Beshear won by a slim margin).
A dem governor in Kentucky as we saw with Beshear can mitigate some of the worst transphobia there. Which is why I liked him, even though he was boring Christian moderate (with no doubt a bunch of shitty opinions), the fact he seemed to take every opportunity to unprompted state that the republican transphobia was evil and cruel.
