Maybe the voters in Kentucky are smarter than we thought. They kept voting for Mitch McConnell election after election, sending him back to Congress even when it was clear the Republican did nothing for the state. So maybe in this cycle these voters were just pulling our legs all along. According to a new poll, these voters now favor Alison Grimes.

We can all exhale, although, briefly!

After two polls in his favor, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has slipped behind Democratic challenger Alison Lundergan Grimes in his re-election bid, according to the latest Bluegrass Poll.

Grimes, Kentucky’s secretary of state, now leads the five-term senator 46 percent to 44 percent among likely voters, the survey found. Libertarian candidate David Patterson had 3 percent support in the poll, while 7 percent of likely voters said they were undecided.

While Grimes’ advantage is within the poll’s margin of error, it represents a 6-point swing to the Democrat since the survey was last conducted in late August.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
