Terrified of Mitch McConnell's dimming reelection odds, Karl Rove spends $10,000 to trash possible Ashley Judd candidacy in Kentucky



When are fatcats going to cut Karl Rove's allowance?
     Ashley Judd hasn't even reestablished residency in her home state of Kentucky, and already the GOP's big money flameout of 2012 has blown 10 grand on a web ad designed to cut her off at the knees, politically.
      In respect of Mitch McConnell, one of the Senate's most unprincipled political opportunists, Rove's paranoia may be rooted in the following:
A recent poll found only 17% of registered voters in Kentucky would support Mitch McConnell in 2014, including only 34% of Republicans. Thirty-four percent of voters plan to oppose him, 44% want to see their other options, and 6% remain unsure. Kentucky Democrats continue to search for a viable contender and believe that a campaign led by the actress may be even harmful to the party.
