It’s looking like a rout in Kentucky. From SurveyUSA (likely voters, 4/12-14, 3/23-30 in parens):
Bruce Lunsford (D): 47% (42%)
Greg Fischer (D): 9% (6%)
David Williams (D): 8% (11%)
James Rice (D): 5% (5%)
Mike Cassaro (D): 5% (4%)
David Wylie (D): 3% (5%)
Ken Stepp (D): 1%
Other: 14% (17%)
Undecided: 8% (8%)
(MoE: ±4.2%)
Primary: 5/20.
Well there is still time left and both canidates are just getting on the air. There is still hope we will have a decent canidate I guess.
I hope no one forgets this and for those who are unaware of Lunsford’s previous stands.

like to see a poll testing Lunsford’s chances against McConnell, plus see his cross-tabs (i.e., how many other/undecideds are liberals). The great thing about him is that he can basically self-fund, and he won’t give up competing in all the primaries until he finally wins one!
I have nothing else to say. He’s not a Democrat, as he’s endorsed and donated to Republicans in the past six years for Governor and this exact Senate seat. Therefore the DEMOCRATIC Senate Campaign Committee should not spend a dime on Kentucky if Lunsford is the nominee (okay I had a little more to say).
Based on the 2007 SUSA Polling from the KY Governor’s race, Lunsford should now be called Governor.
On Election Day, three weeks later Lunsford lost by 20 points, a 26-point swing. Additionally keep in mind that none of the Democratic gubernatorial primary candidates went negative in that election do to an agreement.
Full disclosure: I serve as Fischer’s campaign manager.
