Please Kentucky Republicans, do whatever you can to avoid putting Rand Paul on the ticket. Remember what happened when you kept the sure loser Ernie Fletcher on the gubernatorial ticket back in 2007. This poll was done August 15-17 among 516 likely voters.

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

Things not looking too rosy for the GOP in Kentucky, especially sitting US Senator Jim Bunning, according to a new poll from Public Policy Polling.

Hopefully the RNC gets over their habit of protecting incumbents no matter what and is trying to find someone, anyone, to take down Bunning in a primary so we do not give away yet another US Senate that should be reliably Republican. This poll was done April 2-3 among 610 registered voters.

KY: Bunning Barely Ahead Of Four Democrats

Friday, February 6th, 2009

If Republican US Senator manages to win the nomination for re-election, it looks like he will struggle to hold onto his seat against four other Democrats. If Secretary of State Trey Grayson were to get the nomination, he would have just as much trouble holding the seat in GOP hands. All this according to a new poll from leftist website Daily Kos and Research 2000.

US SENATE – KENTUCKY (Daily Kos/Research 2000)

Jim Bunning (R-inc) 45 %
Ben Chandler (D) 42%

Jim Bunning (R-inc) 46%
Jack Conway (D) 42%

Jim Bunning (R-inc) 45%
Crit Luallen (D) 41%

Jim Bunning (R-inc) 46%
Daniel Mongiardo (D) 42%

Trey Grayson (R) 42%
Ben Chandler (D) 42%

Trey Grayson (R) 42%
Jack Conway (D) 41%

Trey Grayson (R) 42%
Crit Luallen (D) 42%

Trey Grayson (R) 43%
Daniel Mongiardo (D) 42%

Chandler is a current US Congressman, Conway is the Attorney General, Luallen is the State Auditor and Mongiardo is the current Lieutenant Governor. This poll was done January 29-February 2 among 600 likely voters. Keep in mind, Bunning barely edged out Mongiardo six years ago by a 51%-49% at the same time Bush was trouncing the Vietnam Veteran John Kerry by a 20% margin (60%-40%).
