testing the best attack lines to use against Judd, including the fact that she currently lives in Tennessee.." (From the Politico.com story "Judd Meets With DSCC"
I sure would like to see the Turtle defeated, and Ashley Judd could well be the one to accomplish that goal.
The current Lt.Governor of Kentucky is a popular Democrat named Jerry Abramson.
I wonder if he, too, is interested in running against McConnell?
On Ashley Judd running against McConnell, "Roll Call" points out:
"A stronger candidate, insiders said, would be Kentucky Secretary of State
Alison Lundergan Grimes. But she, along with other statewide elected officials, might decide to pursue their political ambitions elsewhere.

Also, according to "Roll Call", Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee is a
"well-liked Senator and former Governor [who] is a masterful campaigner who knows the Volunteer State politics well....and who is also a boffo fund-raiser as well, which makes any challenge to him a steep uphill climb."
Perhaps Ashley Judd might consider remaining in Tennessee, and going after
Lamar Alexander instead?
She might be able to match Alexander's ability to raise funds, and, as a Tennessean,
she might be the only Democrat in that state who COULD defeat Lamar Alexander.,
I just want to see the Dems get 60 seats in 2014, and if they can defeat "safe seat"
Republicans like Lamar Alexander, they just might reach that 60 vote threshold; and wouldn't that be awesome?
