KY-Sen: McConnell Leads by 9 in New Poll

Rasmussen (9/30, likely voters, 8/29 in parens):

Bruce Lunsford (D): 42 (42)
Mitch McConnell (R-inc): 51 (52)
(MoE: ±4.5%)

Unlike recent Mason-Dixon and SurveyUSA polls that have shown a small McConnell lead, Rasmussen has the incumbent retaining a wider -- but not overwhelming -- advantage. Still, this race could bust wide open, and I hope we'll see many more polls in the remaining weeks.

Main difference between this and SUSA poll
is that McCain consolidates his base (Republicans) better... the independent and Democratic numbers are similar to that of SUSA. But Rasmussen has McCain getting 88% of Republicans, compared to 79% according to SUSA.
