McConnell remains extremely unpopular
From the article:
The good news for Democrats is that they still have several candidates who poll within striking range of McConnell. Alison Lundergan Grimes, despite having only 50% name recognition, comes within 4 points of McConnell at 45/41. She's gained a little bit of ground on him since our December poll that found him with a 47/40 advantage. And former Congressman Ben Chandler trails McConnell just 46/41. Ed Marksberry, the only announced Democratic candidate in the race at this point, trails the incumbent 46/35.
I don't really like Chandler, have heard mixed things about Grimes, and know nothing of Marksberry but anyone would have to be better than McConnell. Hopefully we can rid of him this time.
