There are more registered Democrats than Republicans in Kentucky.

That's my point, though. I mean, without knowing Kentucky politics myself or being on the ground, doesn't this pretty much set her up to win? I could be completely wrong, but just going by the numbers.

Kentucky votes GOP in federal elections and Democrat in state elections.

The same could be said of Paul in 2010 or McConnell in '08. Those Democrats are much more conservative than average.

Kentucky Democrats aren't as enthusiastic about murdering unborn children, but they're no less statist than the national party.

I'd disagree there. They're against environmental regulation, a lot of them oppose Obamacare, and about 42% of them voted for "uncommitted" over Obama in the 2012 primaries.
 
Georgia looks bad.

Ok, the environmental regulations I agree, since Kentucky does mine a lot of coal. Obamacare, I think many are just against it because it has his name on it, but if you ask them about the "Affordable Care Act" they're all for it and they love Medicaid.
 
Is B. Barr the guy who ran for President in 2008 as a Libertarian and then supported Gingrich over Paul in 2012?

There is some truth, still, they're much more reasonable than Democrats somewhere like Massachusetts.
 
Tommy Moll (AR-04), Bob Johnson (GA-01), Jody Hice (GA-10), and Barry Loudermilk (GA-11) are looking good. AR-04 is a tossup and the Georgians will all probably make it into runoffs.
 
Why are there a lot of people challenging Labrador, is he unpopular? IIRC he's a tea/liberty guy?

He is pro amnesty. He keeps changing his position. His position 12 months ago was probably the same as Cantor or Boehner today.

He is good on most issues.

He only won the 2010 with 44% because his opponent was endorsed by Eric Cantor (young guns) and McPalin. 50% in the general in the 2010 election.

There was a huge backlash against Larry Craig and his amnesty pushing.
