Ain't NOBODY wants David Williams for Kentucky governor. [The Arena]

David Williams' colossal failure as a candidate cut across every demographic segment in Kentucky. Over a fifth of tea party voters say they will reject him today and vote for Democrat Steve Beshear. Republicans can't blame their mess on Gatewood Galbraith splitting the vote, either. If anything, Galbraith may pull more votes from Beshear than Williams.

SurveyUSA's latest poll on the Kentucky race for Governor shows what a total and complete failure David Williams has been as a candidate, on every level. Having swept every state-wide election in recent history, with the exception of the last race for governor, in which their incumbent was badly damaged by scandals of his own making, the Republican Party in Kentucky is going to be doing some difficult self-reflection as to how their train went so badly off the tracks.

Sunday afternoon event to feature Williams, Galbraith-but no Beshear

Want to meet your Kentucky gubernatorial candidates—at least a couple of them? This Sunday, September 11, candidates for Kentucky governor will speak at a public forum organized by the Yearlings Club-University of Louisville discussion series. The format differs from a debate in that each candidate will have at least a half hour to talk individually about his views and plans for the state.

Hubris and complacency has cost Democrats "easy" wins before.

cn|2 Pure Politics is reporting strong early polling results for Governor Steve Beshear [D-Ky.] in his reelection campaign against David Williams [R-Ky.] Whether this is good news or bad news for Beshear depends on whether Democrats get complacent.

There is good reason why they shouldn't, and ample reason to fear that they will.

President Obama's 2008 landslide created Democratic over-confidence and complacency.
