Trey Grayson Blocks Cameras and Audience Members

[darladeewp]

Does it make since to be out in public and then try to hide....Duh..

[hyylo]

hahaha what a joke, trey you fool.

[anubiscomplex]

Thanks boys.. you've just given me a reason not to vote for Grayson ... Not even elected and already trumping freedom of press and information..

[JennDianne09]

i think he is hiding from votes...he dont want your vote

[Devkerr]

he is supported by Dick Cheney. Wake up People.

the man is like every other corrupt politician.

[NewKreature517]

Why anybody would vote for someone who has to result to such tactics is beyond me. To me, this man is obviously not a "man of the people".

[lawlessone03]

Eyes on the prize Rand!

[nododon]

Wow this is pathetic.

"It's the Rand Paul cameras, hide me, hide me! If they get a picture of me they will steal my soul."

Don't worry Trey, you sold your soul to the devil a long time ago.

[kenp3L]

Why not just put him into a burka? That way no one will be able to see him.

[StealthSteez]

lol wtf why did he do this? I bet he's just telling his supporters lies about Rand.

is this how he's going to act when he's elected? What a joke.

[swizzlecheeks]

Grayson served his Corporate Masters well while in office. He knows he'll lose but doesn't care. His masters paid him off well.

....Are those kids with the signs his little 'butt buddies'?

"Here little boy, come here." This guy oozes creepiness.

[jpace4revolution]

reminds me of John Edwards. he is a fake

[magnumprimer]

What an establishment turd. Folks, this is the face (or non-face) of the the GOP on full display. The GOP hates America and the common American just as much as the Democrats do, they just do a better job of wrapping themselves in the American flag.

[jagat101]

Trey is comfortable hiding...in his "closet".

[mtoasty]

Trey is what is wrong with this country. Career politicians are ruining this country. We may be the first generation that hands off our country to the next generation where it is in worse shape than when we inherited it.

[libertythug]

This is just odd... Who on Earth would vote for a guy that has his people put up signs to block out cameras? He obviously has something to hide.

[rlake76]

Greyson and his hired help are so creepy.....just creepy

[nododon]

His campaign shirts say "Run Trey Run" ....

I am still trying to figure out what the hell he is running from?

Must be Rand Paul.

[MrPloppy1]

LOL

"Run Trey Run"

...and take the rest of the NeoCons with ya!

[tsenuta]

He is afraid of the camera catching him endorsing both sides of the fence. Clinton was famous for it.

[nothosaur]

Kentucky is spoiled rotten -- you get to choose between people like Grayson, McConnell and Rand Paul. It's obvious that Rand Paul is the best choice. But, consider the choices that people in Hellinois have been faced with for U.S. Senate: Obama or Turbin Durbin.

I'm moving to Kentucky

[mcportaro]

Grayson has no clue what real conservatism is. He is a McConnell puppet and needs to be tossed away like McConnell does. Any GOP member who voted for bailouts is not conservative, periodl! Rand Paul was taught by the only politician with any sense of true conservatism and that's his dad Ron Paul. Wake up KY vote for Rand.

[ourmanthejoker]

i just don't get why someone would do this. Don't they want people to see the guy?

[RP08Patriot]

Oooh, So that is what a Grayson yard sign looks like, I had not idea. It's funny, I have seen dozens of Paul signs/bumper stickers up around Lexington, but NOT ONE Grayson. So in my (non-scientific)personally conducted Yard Sign Poll, Rand is ahead roughly 25 to 0. How many of those signs do you beleive were already primary voters? I'm guessing not many. Yes, Rand is the man! I just feel greatful to not be limited to the "lesser of two evils" for a change.

[GuerillaReporter]

Rand is the man. Let's be at the head of the curve and elect Rand Paul, a true constitutionalist. It is time to Restore America and with men like Dr. Rand Paul, we can do that.

[residentzombie]

Don't you guys see the seperation from Libertarians and 'establishment' candidates? The 'establishment' follows the United Nations charter and ignores the Constitution.

[danielstwin]

god damn who is the kooky one ...lolo

[NSResponder]

What in the world is this idiot thinking? Hiring a pack of minimum-wage flunkies to follow him around and try to keep him *off* camera?

Like Foghorn Leghorn used to say, that boy's about as sharp as a bowling ball.

-jcr

[JennDianne09]

@NSResponder hahaha i agree he is abot as smart as a bowling ball hahaha

[cartmanfan0316]

Trey will be a rubber stamp for Mitch "Bail out Banks" Mcconnell. Watch, if Trey loses in the primary he will support the Dem.

[ourmanthejoker]

I'm more of a rand paul guy myself.

[nickldavis]

this video needs more hits to show more voters that this is the true colors of the man they may be voting for... he's a chump and when Rand takes his job he's going to look like a chump while he hands out resumes.

[TheStuartwarren]

It is really uplifting to hear Paul supporters attacking Grayson on a personal level when they have no personal relationship with the man. He is a great man and I have known him for nearly 3 years now. If there is a man who loves his state more than Secretary Grayson, then I can assure you it is not Rand Paul. Rand Paul was not born and raised in Kentucky as Grayson was. Paul came to Kentucky for business, not a love for this Commonwealth. Paul knows his campaign time is short.

[nickldavis]

@TheStuartwarren yeah from the looks of this video he's REALLY in touch with the public. And just because you're born somewhere doesn't mean you belong there any more then any one else. Your response is a good example of the narrow minded thinking that we're trying to remove from government.

And you DO realize that Paul is ahead of Grayson in the polls right? I know it doesn't mean he will win, but it makes him the #1 contender, and gives him a shot. Vote for beliefs, not for your friends.

[TheStuartwarren]

First of all, Sec. Grayson has been all over this state meeting with Kentuckians. Sec. Grayson can name nearly every city in every county. I'm sure Dr. Paul would be good to even give an exact number of how many counties and cities exist in our Commonwealth.

I support Grayson not because he is a great friend, but because I know he is the kind of guy we can count on to represent conservative values time after time on Capitol Hill.

[annica570]

conservative? trey grayson is not conservative by any means. anyone supporting federal intervention in education and a continuance of compulsary federal taxation is a far, far cry from conservatism. rand paul is the only conservative in the race.

[TheStuartwarren]

If it weren't for government intervention in education, there would be no public schools. Matter of fact, I would think that as a nation we wouldn't advance because most people either wouldn't have the money to afford education for their children. without federal taxes, there would be no government and I do not think for one second that you would want to live in that kind of world. To think otherwise would be foolish. Taxes are necessary for a government to exist, the current rate is not.

[annica570]

stuart, let me begin with a quote: "extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice! moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue!"

-Barry Goldwater

i'm afraid you've drifted into the world of keynesianism. learn the difference between direct taxes and indirect taxes.

without the federal government in schools, there would be no mandates. your property taxes are what funds public schooling. federal mandates are draconian, and open up a world of fascism.

[TheStuartwarren]

First of all, I commented on your lack of a thorough explanation. Federal intervention in education would include grants and federal funding for public schools and college students. Without that, our education would be no where because the education provided by businesses would be limited to their needs.

[NSResponder]

Stuart, how do you explain the fact that American students did far better before the federal government started spending billions of tax dollars interfering with state and local education efforts?

-jcr

[annica570]

and i'm not sure i would be afraid to live in a world without a federal government, even though that is not what would happen even if we did abolish the irs.

a conservative does not think the way you do. a conservative has much more faith in the market. people cannot afford things like private schooling because government has inflated the prices. not because every private school got together one day and decided things were going to be expensive.

[annica570]

if the prices were not inflated, and the supply, which would inevitably go up with competition if the feds got out of it, things would get way cheaper. the states and local communities could make their decisions on public schooling, and the market would offer more private options at a much lower price. which would result in smarter kids, and a more advance society in which the federal government left it's hands out of education. you can see the result in every country with a lower edu budget.

[TheStuartwarren]

I have full faith in the market, but we do not have a free-market in this nation. I agree that states and local communities should, for the most part, have full control over their PUBLIC schools. However, you need the Constitution and the Supreme Court to rule against those loons who push for creationism and intelligent design to be taught in science courses, when in fact neither have anything to do with science.

[TheStuartwarren]

To sum up what I've said (because I'm not sure how these comments have been ordered), complete federal isolation from the market and education system would be a terrible mistake. The states and communities cannot financially support public education. I believe in minimal government, not a laissez-faire one.

Rand may be leading in the polls, but the polls failed to advertise the fact that 50% of those who took the survey are undecided. Polls this early mean absolutely nothing.

[annica570]

ronald reagan was a huge advocate of abolishing the department of education. if you are voting for anyone who chooses to leave the federal government in the education process, you are not voting for a conservative. all great conservatives have been advocates of abolishing the department of education.

[residentzombie]

If there werent government intervention in the schools, we would have better schools and more educated children. It is government intervention that leads to high education costs since the educators good and bad all get the money they want with the government giving them their checks.

[nickldavis]

@TheStuartwarren It's also quite convenient that you just so happened to have just joined youtube today... I smell lobbying.

[TheStuartwarren]

Interesting... last time I checked, lobbying was an action that takes place to convince legislators to fight for specific issues a special interest group made up of individual concerned citizens in that legislators constituency care deeply about.

[nickldavis]

@TheStuartwarren And just for the sake of wasting my time, I would like to point out the following - Who cares how much who loves their state. That's the most unimportant factor in politics... it's about representing the ideas and wants or those who live within the state.

[TheStuartwarren]

Rarely do I care enough to subscribe to anything such as YouTube, but when I see people making false accusations towards another person, I feel the need to stand up for that person in their absence. Passion for one's state is the most important factor in politics. Without caring for one's state do you really think any government official would be able to represent the general will of his or her constituency? I doubt it.

[NSResponder]

" I have known him for nearly 3 years now. "

So, just about as long as he's been pretending to be a Republican, eh? Can you give us any reason to vote for Grayson besides where he was born? For that matter, can you perhaps explain why that even matters in the first place?

Rand Paul has my support because I believe he means what he says. He's a man who's made a living by serving his customers, not by milking the taxpayers. Has Grayson ever done an honest day's work his life?

-jcr

[HHFOV]

@TheStuartwarren Rand Paul has been a Kentuckian longer than Trey Grayson has been a Republican. How does that make you feel?

Also, how does it make you feel to know that Jim Bunning endorsed Rand Paul?

[gsuitter]

Trey shows his true colors and they aren't red, white and blue. There yellow!

[shroomingnewman]

poor old political hack trey can't handle the heat

[sonrider657]

This gives a new meaning to the phrase "Here's your sign!"

[PATR10TX]

So Grayson thinks it's cool to send ol' Fatty Pancakes to creep around and film Rand Paul at every public event but he can't be caught on video talking to real people unscripted. Grayson knows he's toast!

[byu93]

All the signs say "Secretary of State". I thought he was running for Senate. Is he just recycling his old campaign signs?

[mjhonsun]

I would have leaned towards one of these fanatical sign holders & gently whispered in their ear, "You are all mindless automatons."

[SoCalMartialLawAlert]

THAT IS BIZARRE. I've never seen a candidate's supporters act like that! First, is it normal for supporters to follow a candidate around like a bunch crazed groupies? Second, do you think that Grayson knows that his "groupies" were deliberately blocking camera shots? Most political candidates love the camera & know that they need all the press they can get. If they were doing that with his blessing, then he is a very disturbed individual with shades of Mafia Don in his character. Be afraid.

[mojwop]

Dont vote for trecherous Trey!!!!!!!!!

[hairbones]

I will give Rand Paul cash to defeat this SOB. Thanks for the motivation guys!

[airborne373]

lol, Run Trey Run.

He sure is running - from truth, liberty and freedom.

What are you afraid of Trey?

[SaintEntreri]

This is so sad. Politics looks more and more like five year olds in the money sandbox every day.

[mx4life82]

LOL - Run Trey Run is on their shirts. That's stolen from RunRandRun.

What's even better is that when you type in Trey Grayson on YouTube, Rand Paul comes up!

Go Rand!

What a bunch of immature people. What has America come to?

I would actually thank them for blocking Grayson, he looks like he fell out of the ugly/overweight tree and hit every branch on the way down.

[duncanhunter2008]

Wow. Scared of the sunlight - that's the guy I want to vote for.

Ya'll should have blurred the text on his signs. :)

[mjhonsun]

Just saw this video. I had to laugh. What a delicate little flower Trey Grayson is. Honestly I hope he keeps doing it. I hope he gets even more lackeys to hold follow him around covering him up with signs and shielding him from anyone who might want to speak to him or film him without passing through his "filter" first. That will send exactly the right message about what sort of candidate he is.

[sanarkhos]

I had the same reaction, although I'm still a little confused about his fear of attention.

It's almost like he's afraid the camera can steal his soul

[mjhonsun]

Grayson has has paid a "tracker" (i.e. stalker) to follow his opponent Rand Paul around KY at political (& non-political) functions, filming him for some sort of attack piece or political hit job. My opinion is that Grayson is afraid that one of his opponents may be trying to do the same thing to him. If so, it's funny how he seems to be the most paranoid about a practice that he is engaging in. People always tend to accuse others of doing the things that they are guilty of. Hypocrisy.

[mjhonsun]

This coming from a guy who has paid a "tracker" to shoot as much video of Rand Paul (in political and non-political settings) as he can so he can find something to use in an attack ad. Sounds like he's worried about the same tactic being used on him. Of course, it sounds like he's the only one who sweats this sort of thing - probably because he is the one who is doing it.

If you want to see video of Grayson's tracker, go to the RandPaulSupporter channel here on YouTube. It's pretty creepy.

[jinalpa64]

Run TREY, run?! Seriously? That was the most "original" slogan they could come up with? How many months ago... when was the first time someone said, "Run Rand Run! And what's with the blocking? It's not like he was being stalked at his church while he helped to serve cornbread. LOL!
