New Poll--KY Senate race--Paul (R) 43% Conway (D) 40%

[book_worm]

(If I were the Dems I'd put a lot of $$ in this race even if it means taking some out of MO & OH, where it seems that the senate candidates in those states are falling behind further. KY is stil competitive and Conway is an attractive candidate and Paul is a nut. If Dems can win KY it would be a pick-up and would (probably) be enough to keep the Senate Democratic):

After six weeks of the ad war in the U.S. Senate race, Republican Rand Paul holds a 4-point lead over Democratic candidate Jack Conway, according to the latest cn|2 Poll.

Paul received support from 43.4% of respondents compared to 39.5% for Conway with 16.6% still undecided. The poll of 826 likely voters was conducted by live interviewers by Braun Research Inc. between Oct. 4 and 6 and has a margin of error of 3.5 points.

It’s the first statewide cn|2 Poll since Sept. 1 when Paul showed a 5-point lead.

2. I don't think it's the right election cycle to win a race like this.

It would be awesome, though.

4. Looks like there will be at least 5 teabaggers in the Senate

AK, KY, WI, NV, and UT.

We are really deep shit, people.

[Arugula Latte]

7. Wisconsin is the truly disgusting one. I don't expect much of those other states, but Wisconsin?

Jesus H. Christ.

[K8-EEE]

12. Yeah that is really depressing but

WTH, I'm sending a couple of bucks anyway, we can't let the polls call all the races for us, we have to have an election first!

[K8-EEE]

8. I'm not so sure about NV!

It seems all my GOP relatives in very conservative Winemucca are disgusted/embarrassed by Angle and voting "none of the above." I doubt if they're the only ones and she keeps talking crazy. Hopeful about KY because I think the poll are scewing for GOP.

[Doctor_J]

11. OK, then FL

Maybe that makes you feel better

[K8-EEE]

13. No I don't feel good about FL at all

But who knows what will happen this month. At any rate Eyore-ism is not what we need right now.

[JustAmused]

14. So have I Doctor

and will again. I got an email from them the other day. Jack is having a rally in Lexington at the UK campus with Clinton....Bill Clinton. I plan to be to be there

[elleng]

21. ONLY if we sit on our hands.

$$$ in KY, WI, and NV should do it. (Don't know enough about AK and UT, but prolly wouldn't hurt.)

[Stuart G]

22. I would not give up on KY,WI, or NV....we can win those..

[flamingdem]

5. go Conway! nt

[Fire1]

6. Ky always has been a hard nut to crack. n/t

[LiberalFighter]

9. My impression of Kentucky

Beware of eastern Kentuckians. Dry counties and wet counties? That is nuts!

[Historic NY]

10. Hey Kentucky...wake up or you will fall further behind your 46 in per capita income.
