Lunsford profiled in Enquirer

Looks like the local media is realizing that Mitch McConnell is vulnerable -- the Enquirer ran this story today:

[Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Bruce] Lunsford is smart; he is rich, able to pour millions of his own money into the race; he comes from a successful background in business; and he understands government from his years in the administration of former Gov. John Y. Brown Jr.

But Lunsford's staunchest backers and contributors say his greatest asset is timing.

...Polling has shown Lunsford within single digits of McConnell, a four-term incumbent with a campaign war chest of about $15 million.
