Jim Bunning in a uphill battle
According to new tracking on the DailyKos. Jim Bunning has uphill battle in his reelection campaign. Even though he is a incumbent, he only holds a 4pt lead on most other candidates.
Research 2000 has polled a series of matchups between the two strongest potential Republican candidates (including incumbent Sen. Jim Bunning and Secretary of State Trey Grayson) and the four strongest potential Democratic candidates (Rep. Ben Chandler, Attorney General Jack Conway, State Auditor Crit Luallen, and Lieutenant Governor Dan Mongiardo).
The poll results indicate that despite wildly diverging favorabilities for each candidate, every matchup yields a four-point margin at the most, regardless of who the candidates are. Even stranger, the leastpopular candidate in the field by favorability - Senator Bunning - actually has the strongest numbers in head-to-head polls.

Mongiardo will be the one in the uphill battle when Kentuckians are reminded over and over and over without mercy that Danny Boy thinks his own constituents are ignorant and racists. John Murtha’s constituents may put up with that but I don’t think the Republicans will let Kentuckians forget Mongiardio’s idiotic political blunder.
