The endorsement for conservative challenger Matt Bevin is latest indication he is picking up steam against McConnell.

Matt Bevin, the Tea-Party-backed candidate challenging Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) for the Republican nomination in the Kentucky Senate race, has won the endorsement of the president of the Louisville Tea Party.

It's the latest indication Bevin is picking up steam against McConnell. He's also gotten the backing of a number of other Kentucky Tea Party groups, and the endorsement of the Madison Project, which supports conservative candidates nationwide.
