But that's only the beginning of the bad news for Mitch.

This SUSA poll was conducted from 10/12 to 10/14. This is before Jim Carroll's C-J article in which McConnell's office first responded to and verified the charges that they sent out the false smear of the Frosts to reporters. This was before Mark Herbert came out with the video of Mitch McConnell LYING to the face of all Kentuckians, claiming that his office had non involvement whatsoever in doing so. This is before the C-J and LHL wrote damning editorialson Mitch's behavior in this entire fiasco. This is before Hawpe, Keeling and Leonard called Mitch out on his shameful behavior.

If this poll shows that soccer moms hated McConnell a week and a half ago, just think of what their opinion of him is now.

For your additional enjoyment, here is a comparison between McConnell's poll numbers among KY moderates from June to October in 2006 as compared to this year. (Hint: Mitch is now a card carrying member of the extreme right-wing fringe in the eyes of KY voters)

(another hint: Lt. Col. Andrew Horne is the man that will beat him next year. Here's the Draft Horne page, and info on him from BlueGrassRoots and Ditch Mitch)
