Paul has endorsed McConnell, who hired Paul's campaign manager as his own.

Enten doesn't think McConnell will have primary trouble. As for Bevin's speechifying... that was half of why McCain picked Palin.

No one knows anything about Bevin except he's a Generic TP Businessman. Though I'm sure once McConnell's through with him we'll know a lot more.

McConnell's newest ad. Can only imagine what the TV ads will be like. Hell, Cillizza mused yesterday that the state's TV markets could be completely saturated.

I don't see any reason why an internal poll would be skewed, unless the poll was conducted specifically for the purpose of being released to the press.

Which is precisely what this and all other leaked "internals" are.

I've heard both Pub primary arguments from Dems, but Sawx's view is the predominant one. Al Cross and Howard Fineman, among others, were impressed with Bevin at Fancy Farm. At any rate the trademark nuking is incoming...

Bevin raised a grand total of $222k when self-funding is subtracted. Game changer.

Rothenberg thinks McConnell should be more worried about the primary. Ideally keep Bevin under 33%, but under 40 no matter what. I'll be curious to see if Bevin manages to catch any grassroots fire given how paltry his fundraising's been. Also curious to see if McConnell agrees to debate Bevin at any point. I doubt it.

McConnell: I broker deals and get bipartisan praise/criticism, she's the blind partisan. He's clearly not that worried about the primary.

Bevin doesn't seem to be catching grassroots fire. You can see it in the fundraising numbers where nearly all the money is his own. Granted that he may catch fire closer to primary day, say March or April. But if he can't harness the shutdown deal, what can he harness?

NRA will go all-out for McConnell. Meanwhile Grimes challenged McConnell to join her on the range.



NRO repeating what we all know: like Reid, McConnell nukes anyone who stands in his way.

Posting this here: Marksberry claims a county party chair and a much more prominent, as yet unnamed person tried to get him out of the race on Grimes' behalf.

Look what Team Mitch gave NRO. This actually reminds me of an ad Reid ran back in '86 against his Pub opponent, a party-switcher. Bevin has been doing a lot of groundwork from what I've read.
