Believe it or not: for Kentucky Republican primary, most voters will likely depend on "Mitch's poll".

There have been rampant speculations over who else will announce their candidacy for Kentucky Governor -- particularly on the Republican side. Other than knowing that there's a Sonny day coming, I have heard, without independent confirmation as of yet, from a usually reliable source that a Hal will be in the race. The prospect of a candidate named Anne was previously confirmed, from a reliable source, as a "no go". But that was so close to her being "yarmuthed" (my word!) that her then position was understandable. Now, talk of an Anne run is generating more talk (and I need to re-confirm it from my source), again. Maybe, someone -- you know who -- has been talking to her. (I beg to differ with those who conclude that Anne is still a "no go" because her campaign manager is "KEEP"ing company somewhere else. That move, to me, makes her run even more likely as she would want a different campaign manager to run a statewide campaign than the one who lost a district re-election campaign for her. NOTE: An Anne run means that both of the Gov.'s top 2003 campaign managers, Anne and Billy, are now running against him!!). Al Cross, used most of his weekly column to discuss Anne's race. In the column, Al mentions a Steve (as in Pence) candidacy (in a previous post, I put all my chips on a Steve for AG run. I still bet on that happening, but without all my chips) and a Hal run, but Al mostly discusses the strengths of an Anne candidacy, including the results of a poll which has her beating our Gov.. I say, the ONLY poll that's going to count for a majority of Republicans in the primary races -- and for a win in the November -- is that of a man named Mitch.
