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.

I believe you are approaching the matter as a (rather bitter) partisan, rather than as an unbiased analyst.
Stu Rothenberg (in The Rothenberg Political Report) lists this race currently as "Leans Republican."
And Larry Sabato--another serious political analyst--in his Crystal Ball, lists the upcoming senatorial race in Kentucky as "Likely R[epublican]."
Note: Mitch McConnell's American Conservitive Union rating is--wait for it--96 percent! But for the purists (who believe that things must get immeasurably worse before they can get better--much like the Judeans of the Maccabean Era, in the second century BC), that is, well, just not good enough. Better that the Democrats should keep control of the Senate, so as to hasten the downfall of the republic, thereby bringing about The Revolution in our political system...
