A couple of events in knowing the Kentucky with my good friend of yours,
Rob Sanders, and I sense at the time a week ago something was changing.
I could feel the earth move under my feet, to quote the rock
song. And most of the polling has Andy Basheer up by I don't know,
ten fifteen to twenty percentage points, which means Democrats need not worry about
voting. It's already in the bag. But nonetheless, Daniel Cameron finds himself
today this afternoon in northern Kentucky. Daniel Cameron, welcome again to the Bill
Cunningham Show. And mister ag if the polls are correct and things have turned
around, why is the case, well, Bill, the polls have caught
up with what we've already known is that Andy Basheer is not right for Kentucky.
A governor who would openly endorse Joe Biden for president. That's what Andy
Basheer has done. Is out of touch with the hardworking Kentuckians, out of
touch with the hardworking men and women of this commonwealth. And this is a
governor who vetoed legislation to protect women's sports from biological males. This is a
governor who shut down your small businesses, your schools, your churches. This
is the governor who's let out a jail two thousand criminals and over fifty percent
of them have recommitted fellony offenses. So this governor does not understand Kentucky is
out of step with the values of our citizens. And that's why I'm gonna
win on November seventh. And that's why the polls show that we are in
a dead heat, and the most recent poll show that I'm up one point.
So we're gonna win. We're gonna win this thing, my friend,
and it's because folks in Northern Kentucky want common sense leadership. Look, I
talk about this all the time. This isn't a race anymore about Republican versus
Democrat. This is a race about crazy versus normal. And we've got to
restore normal, common sense values to our governor's office. And that's what I'm
gonna do after we win tomorrow night. Relative to crazy. You're with Riley
Gaines. She's with the with the tour of Northern Kentucky today. And this
is a woman from UK who did not want to shall we say, compete
against biological males who were like Leah Thomas's six foot four, one hundred and
ninety five pounds, and she's a woman. And something when you talk about
crazy or normal, if somebody had said to any adult, especially in my
home state of Kentucky, that in a few years, we're going to debate
whether or not a man can have a baby, We're going to allow teenage
boys to go into girls' locker rooms and go into the dressing room. We're
gonna have we're going to obliterate female sports. I watch what happened to a
female rugby player who was forced to compete against a male and lost her teeth
when an elbow found its way into her mouth. And if somebody had said
to you, Daniel Cameron, a few years back, you know, we're
going to live in a time in Kentucky where the governor of the state will
encourage allow and permit teenage boys to go into girls' locker rooms and bathrooms in
private space. And somehow you're the one, Daniel Cameron, out of touch.
What would you have said, Well, look, I think it's absolutely
crazy to have a governor in Andy Basheer who would veto common sense legislation to
protect women's sports from biological males. I'm sure there are a lot of parents
and grandparents of daughters and granddaughters that would be incensed by having a governor that
will not stand up and protect women's sports. Look, that's what Title nine
is all about, protecting women's sports, making sure that they have a fair
playing field. But the far left and Andy Basheer are indifferent to the needs
of our families and indifferent to the needs of our women's sports athletes. And
so look, we've got to make sure that we have leadership in the state
that's going to protect women's sports from biological males. And that is exactly what
I will do as the next governor in Kentucky. I wanted two more issues.
I know you're busy this afternoon. An effective commercial being run by Annie
Basher that if you don't look into it makes some sense. You see a
teacher or you see a parent talking about education and that somehow Daniel Cameron doesn't
respect or want to support public education because like many conservative Republicans, you believe
in a voucher type system where in Ohio, an Ohio kid can get eight
five hundred dollars from the state to go to a private school. If the
public school is failing, if it's terrible, I can only imagine being a
kid locked in a Louisville, Lexington or Covington public school, incapable of leaving.
And so can you respond to the issue of do you support of course
you do public education, but secondly giving parents an option to save their children's
educational life. Look, Bill, what I've said repeatedly on this campaign trail
is that we've got to make sure that our education system is world class,
and that means making sure that our schools are about reading, writing, and
math, and they aren't incubators for liberal and progressive ideas. And yes,
we need to give opportunities to all of our students to be the best and
brightest version of themselves. But my cameraon catch up plan is about making sure
that we catch our kids up from the learning loss that they've experienced because Andy
Basheer shut their schools down for two years. It's also about increasing the salaries
of our hardworking teachers. It's about making sure we are disciplined to the classroom
and remove bureaucracy from the classroom. Again, this campaign is about our kids
and our grandkids, and I want to make sure that they have every opportunity
to succeed. And what we have seen from Andy Basheer is a governor who
is willing to accept the status quo and will not help your kids who have
had learning loss inflicted upon them simply because Andy basher made a short sighted decision
to shut down our schools. We need new leadership that recognizes the importance of
parents being involved in the educational opportunities of their kids. Recognize that our schools
have got to be about reading, writing, and math, and not incubators
for liberal and progressive ideas. Lastly, about a minute remaining, Daniel Cameron,
and that is this. You may know that during the height of the
pandemic that there were many churches in northern Kentucky where armed guards from the state
were at the entryway telling church goers you can't go to church. And right
down the street, the liquor stores are open, big box retailers were open,
casinos were open. But guess what wasn't open was church. And that
happened in the beginning of his administration. He took office like in January of
twenty twenty, at the height of the pandemic. Instead of governing the pandemic,
what he did was take away the First Amendment rights of Kentuckians, and
he was taking a task for that by the federal courts. Down the road
many many years later, it was said, well, you can't do that,
but then the Dambish has already done. Can you commit to Kentuckians that
in a Cameron administration there'll be no shutting down of churches and opening up of
liquor stores. Bill, let me say there will be no shutting down of
our churches. We will protect the constitutional rights of our citizens. And you
know when Andy Basheer tried to force our churches to shut down, I went
into federal court and got those churches reopened after nine days. So you can
be assured. You can be assured that I'm going to be a governor that
stands up for your constitutional rights. Will keep our small businesses open, We'll
keep our schools open, and I will certainly keep our churches open again because
that is protected by the First Amendment. Daniel Cameron, thank you very much.
Good luck. The rest of today and tomorrow shocked the world, but
according to the polling, it's not so much of a shock anymore. At
Kentucky values are represented in your breast not in the heart and the head of
Dan of Andy Basheer, who's done terrible things for small businesses, public education,
and also the response of the pandemic over the past four years. Line
up the six or seven issues on both sides. Daniel Cameron is with Kentuckians
and all of them. And Andy Basher has got to run a bunch of
BS commercials that make no sense and doesn't relate the facts. Daniel Cameron,
once again, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show, and have
a great party tomorrow night. But let's get out the vote. Thank you,
sir. Let's go win this thing. God bless you, God bless
America. All right, let's continue with more if the line becomes available.
Five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven thousand, and
I spend some time, as you know, I travel the highways and the
byways every day on a regular basis. I spent some time at Walt's hitching
Post and Fort Wright about a week ago, and I was with the next,
shall I say, Attorney General of the state, a nice man named
Coleman. And he's up twenty points in the polls. In fact, all
the Republicans are running well ahead of their Democratic opponents accept supposedly, and the
governor's race and the Antibasher values are not represented in the hearts of many conductions.
But Daniel Cameron is, so Let's continue with more five three, seven
