In the race to replace Kentucky's "Crazy Uncle" Jim Bunning in the United States Senate a new poll is out. It has found that Lt. Gov. Dan Mongiardo and radical eye doctor Rand Paul with significant leads in the Democratic and Republican primaries. Besides the top four of Mongiardo, Conway, Paul and Grayson no other candidate seemed to garner much support.

The Kentucky Senate race was getting quite boring. Leave it to eccentric, Looney Tune Jim Bunning to heat things up. One would like to think that the outgoing Senator who was shunned by the McConnell machine because he is a can or two short of a six pack decided to shake up this race but then you realize that well, Bunning is a can or two short of a six pack. However, his callous, uncaring and hypocritical "stand" earlier this week against the nation's unemployed has indeed ignited the Kentucky Senate race, which quite frankly was becoming a yawner.

By now everyone knows about the block Jim Bunning decided to put on unemployment benefits. However, this move did not just effect the unemployed. All across America many federal programs will furlough 2,000 other workers without pay and will indefinately end construction projects across the country.

Ah, we remember the most hilarious civil war that broke out between Mitch McConnell and Jim Bunning which toppled the crazy uncle of Kentucky politics and recruited another McConnell "golden boy" akin to disgraced Governor Fletcher in Trey Grayson. But, enter fringe right-winger Rand Paul into the mix and you have the makings of a brand new Republican civil war in Kentucky to laugh at.

One thing we have known in Kentucky for a long time now whatever political stripe you are is quite simply, Jim Bunning is the crazy uncle of Kentucky politics. His antics have been well documented, forcing Mitch McConnell to use his machine to force the walking embarrassment to a disgraced party out of the race in favor of someone he hopes can actually win against either strong candidate the Democrats can field. Well, now we are finding out that if a Repubican is elected in Kentucky we will not only lose a crazy uncle, but gain a crazy nephew.

A new WHAS11/SurveyUSA poll had some pretty surprising results. It was good news for Mongiardo and held quite a surprise on the Republican side.

I have been so tangled in the healthcare fight that I failed to mention we had a new Senate poll in Kentucky yesterday by Survey USA and it brought with it some hard realities in this race. It is going to be a very close primary on the Democratic side and it promises to be one tough race in the fall of next year.

It appears as if another serious candidate for retiring Senator Jim Bunning's seat will emerge today. Rand Paul, son of former Presidential candidate Ron Paul who himself developed an almost cult-like following with very deep pockets will be announcing his candidacy during the maniacal spewings of Glenn Beck today.

See the screen capture of our Youtube videos of Jack Conway, Daniel Mongiardo, Trey Grayson and Rand Paul. Rand Paul wins the Youtube views hands down. His video also has the most comments and the highest ratings. Trey had better get ready for a real fight. Rand Paul is for real.

As I suspected Jim Bunning will not run for re-election in 2010. This opens up the field for Kentucky Republican "golden-boy" Trey Grayson. However, Rand Paul, son of the former Presidential candidate may run in the primary too.

I just got an email sharing Jack Conway's fundraising numbers from last quarter. After hearing Trey Grayson's haul, Conway's numbers are impressive.

After a "successful" first season, the Republican Soap Opera around their Senate nomination has fired up once more. First, lets recap the first season. Mitch McConnell thinks that Jim Bunning is old and nuttier than squirrell turds and should quit. He has recruited another "golden-boy" akin to former corrupt Governor Ernie Fletcher to run instead. Rand Paul, son of former eccentric Presidential candidate Ron Paul want to run too. Of course, in typical Republican fashion they love them some Bunning, but will stab him in the back if needed.

With the Drama Queen Republican Senators and faithful horde of loving back-stabbers in the Republican primary for Kentucky's Senate seat making so many headlines it is almost forgivable to forget that we have some Democrats running. It is just so much fun to watch the mess on the Republican side.
