Regarding the Senate race, I mean. Why, what did you think I was talking about?
Former President Bill Clinton has spoken to both Ashley Judd and Kentucky Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes about the U.S. Senate race in Kentucky, encouraging them both to take a hard look at the race.
ABC News has learned that Clinton encouraged Judd to enter the race and promised he would help her, according to several Kentucky political sources…
Earlier this month Clinton met with Grimes, who is also weighing a bid, after he spoke at an event for former Kentucky Sen. Wendell Ford in Owensboro, Ky., according to multiple political sources in the state. Clinton encouraged Grimes to consider taking on McConnell, adding as he did with Judd that he would support her.
“There’s enough Bill to go around, ladies. Heh, heh, heh…” But wait, there’s more:
The conversation was described as “candid” and “frank” with Clinton saying “all options are available” to the 34-year-old secretary of state and that she has “unlimited potential.” He did add that “bigger is always better,” meaning that the Senate seat would be a better choice than running for the U.S. House in the sixth district or waging a gubernatorial bid in 2015.
Oh, I’m sure that’s what he meant by that.
Note to Judd and Grimes: For the time being, try to avoid blue dresses. Too many associations.
