LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) – The Louisville Courier Journal is reporting that John McCain's double digit lead over Barack Obama in Kentucky is shrinking.

Senator McCain, the Republican presidential nominee, still holds a significant 49 percent to 39 percent lead over Senator Obama, the Democratic nominee. Other polls placed that lead at around 20 percent back in August.

The poll also found Kentucky’s senate race between incumbent Mitch McConnell and challenger Bruce Lunsford is nearly tied -- with McConnell holding a slim one percentage point lead.

The poll also found that 85 percent of likely voters believe the country is on the wrong track. That's the highest percentage since the Bluegrass poll began asking the question in 1990.

I lived in eastern KY. for 20 years. I don't see Obama having a snowballs chance in KY., especially the eastern counties. LOL. This creature is a joke anyhow. Who would even vote for him, except some crackhead idiot.

When you all decide to vote, think of what would be better for the next generation, and not just yourselves...
