The latest SurveyUSA poll on the U.S. Senate race in Kentucky shows Republican Rand Paul beating Democrat Jack Conway by 15 points, 55 percent to 40 percent. This has put Louisville's Courier-Journal in the unenviable position of trying to make the Conway campaign's pushback against the poll a bigger story than the survey the newspaper itself commissioned (along with a local TV station). Other recent public polls have shown the race much closer, though with Paul ahead. SurveyUSA is the highest rated polling firm that has done work on the Kentucky race.
