The Hill: Sen. McConnell says he’s in the ‘most difficult’ reelection bid of his career

Its clear that the national liberal media is finally being forced to pay attention to Kentucky's conservatives. We made our statement when Governor Fletcher defeated the Louisville liberals Mitch McConnell and Anne Northup, and we will declare final victory when Larry Forgy dispatches Mitch McConnell for the 2008 Republican nomination for the United State Senate. The Hill is starting to catch on:

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is “facing the most difficult reelection campaign” of his career, or at least that’s what he’s telling his political supporters...

The letter was posted this week to a blog dedicated to drafting another Republican, former gubernatorial nominee Larry Forgy, to run against him in a primary...

The “most difficult reelection campaign” assertion is interesting because McConnell won reelection in 1990 by less than 5 points in a tough race against former Louisville Mayor Harvey Sloane. McConnell took 55 percent in 1996 and 65 percent in 2002.
