KY-Sen: Big Coal Targets Conway and Chandler

by suibne

Kos had a diary up today (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2010/7/27/887867/-KY-Sen:-The-latest-on-Rand-Paul-hilarity) mentioning the latest on Rand Paul's hijinks, and also the welcome news that Jack Conway has evened the race in internal polling, and even leads among voters who know both candidates.

However, the Lexington paper and McClatchy are reporting tonight (http://www.kentucky.com/2010/07/27/1365946/supreme-court-fallout-coal-industry.html) that major coal companies have been approached by a lawyer from the International Coal Group of Scott's Depot, WV, about starting up a 527 advocacy group in order to target Democratic incumbents - specifically, Jack Conway and KY-6 House member Ben Chandler.
