Although the RealClearPolitics average of four recent polls shows the general-election race to be almost a tossup--McConnell leads the challenger, Alison Lundergan Grimes, by a scant half-percentage point, on average--my guess is that he will pull away over the remaining period of five-and-a-half months, and win rather handily.
Win handily?
McConnell only won his last election by 6%.
Democrat voters outnumber GOP voters in KY.
It will only take a small % of pissed off KY conservatives to send
McConnell over to Trent Lott’s Lobbying Firm.
My advice, prepare to celebrate the newest member of Trent Lott’s
Lobbying Firm, Mitch McConnell, FORMER US Senator from KY.
