Grasping defeat from the jaws of victory...
The NRSC (I think) is running a brutal ad of liberal commentators condemning [Senate hopeful, Jack] Conway, and a columnist (a pastor, no less!) in the Louisville Courier-Journal approvingly cited Jonathan Chait's condemnation of Conway this morning.

Snickering at the religious right just doesn't win elections in America.
(I wonder if Chait looked at Rand Paul's take on abortion - I'm *sure* that didn't come from Ayn Rand. It's like the Will & Grace episode in which everyone discovers that the candidate they assumed as something, was something else...)
It burns that Rand Paul may get through the ring on this. If he was going to be a Congressman, that's one thing. But this is the U.S. Senate.
