First Samurai owner may be headed to US Senate
It can only help to have a horse owner in the Senate especially with the expected involvement by congress over the next few years with drug and internet wagering issues at play. I met him last year at Churchill when he was running for governor and he was a nice guy. I could have done without the ass kissing by Donna Barton but he seemed pretty competent.
He is ahead in the polls. http://www.bruce2008.com/release_details.asp?id=98

I have met him several times. Very pleasant. Wears buckskin shoes a lot. Has been running for office for as long as I've known him. Never seems to actually win.

To answer a couple questions here, Offlee Wild was owned as a partnership horse wih a group he created to bring people into the game (Azalea Stables), and then First Samurai, and 2 or 3 more, with Lunsford. He still will buy at sales, but he's developed a broodmare band of 10-12 in NY and KY and is breeding his own that he runs alone or in partnership with friends or business associates.

Lunsford in the Senate would be a disaster. He will have a really hard time defeating McConnell. McConnell has been a Senator for over 20 years now. Lunsford is a fine businessman but would be worthless and a disaster as a politician. And it isn't because he is a Democrat; it is because his ideas are idiotic.
