8. No one would love seeing McConnell retired more than I would.

But while the rest of the country saw some great Democratic victories, Kentucky seems to be turning redder by the day (except for Louisville, of course). We lost a Dem congressman, Ben Chandler, and the baggers have taken over most of the state outside of Jefferson County, especially in Northern KY.

And yet we have a Democratic Governor, Steve Beshear, who previously ran against McConnell and lost.

Sigh.
