Mitch McConnell, your time is up?

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, whom Jon Stewart delights in likening to a petulant turtle, may be in trouble - finally. (He's one of the main architects of the Republican "strategy" to make sure that Obama is unable to get anything through Congress.)
The Progressive Change Campaign Committee sends this BREAKING NEWS:
The Louisville Courier Journal reports, "For what may be the first time in U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell’s long Senate career, a Democrat poll shows him trailing a challenger."
Our poll is driving national and local news today! We've already spent $100,000 on ads against McConnell and have an organizer mobilizing our thousands of Kentucky members.
McConnell calls himself the "proud guardian of gridlock." If Alison Lundergan Grimes defeats him, she will improve our chances of success on every issue we care about.
At an event today in Kentucky, Karissa Gerhke from our team will release more poll results to reporters --- including the fact that Kentuckians support increasing Social Security benefits by 2 to 1 and reject McConnell's support for cutting Social Security by a whopping 3 to 1.
