One of the ads he'll be running shows Palin praising him for wanting limited government. "I respect that," Palin says in the ad, "and I'm proud to support him." Both candidates have spent heavily on TV advertising. Grayson has collected more than $2.7 million in contributions, most from traditional Republican donors, according to reports filed with the Federal Election Commission. Most of that went to advertising. Paul raised and spent a similar amount by capitalizing on the nationwide donor network of his father, Texas Congressman Ron Paul, a former Republican presidential candidate. The eventual Republican nominee will likely face a well-funded Democrat in the general election. Lt. Gov. Daniel Mongiardo and Attorney General Jack Conway are the front-runners in a close race for the Democratic nomination. Conway spent Friday campaigning in central Kentucky with former longtime U.S. Sen. Wendell Ford, one of Kentucky's most renowned Democrats. Mongiardo spent Friday making a campaign swing through parts of western Kentucky
-- a potentially pivotal region in the Democratic primary.
