Bevin will be Governor. Conway has a habit of losing to Tea Party candidates in landslides.

Habit, noun: a settled or regular tendency or practice. One instance doesn't make a habit.

He's beaten 2 Tea Party candidates in a landslide in 2 different Attorney General elections.

What's your reasoning behind this prediction?

"KY is a republican state" doesn't really work with its gubernatorial races, and the polling, the extremely close and divisive primary, and Bevin's positions/relation with leadership all point to a Conway Victory. The only thing pointing against Conway is his 2010 senate loss, but that was a senate race, not a governor's race, and it took place during a republican wave. There's plenty of time for things to change, and Conway's polling lead is by no means insurmountable, but he definitely has the current advantage.

Plus, Conway was handily re-elected as Attorney General a year after the Rand Paul debacle.
