Rand Paul faces first wave of attack ads in Senate race

According to Michael Gossum, the political director at WBKO in Bowling Green, Kentucky, incumbent Kentucky Senator Rand Paul (R), has picked up an an across-the-aisle endorsement from the Democrat Adair County Judge-Executive, Michael Stephens.

Sen. Paul has responded, saying that he was honored to get an endorsement from across the aisle
