Great news! Kentucky Senate race is dead even!

We just may get to that magic 60+!!!! This was not expected at all. ;-)

Survey USA: Lunsford (D) 48% McConnell (R) 48%

...a good shock though

Oh boy

Although Democrats picked up a House seat in Kentucky in 2006, the state remains fairly conservative. Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) matches the state well and as minority leader in the 110th Senate will wield considerable influence. He is unlikely to face much of a challenge from wealthy businessman Bruce Lunsford for his fifth term. McConnell trivia: his first name is Addison but he goes by "Mitch" (his middle name is Mitchell). Despite the separation of powers mandated by the constitution, McConnell is intimately intertwined with the executive branch: he is married to Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao, the only member of the original Bush cabinet still in office.

Here's Lunsford website:

Bill Clinton will campaign for him this Friday!

I mean a REAL party, with balloons, streamers and everything.

Coattails!

Ditching Mitch has been nearly a life long effort from his Jefferson County Judge/Executive days on.
