Alison Lundergan Grimes is getting some help from Hillary Clinton Wednesday night as she seeks to distance herself from President Barack Obama and defeat Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell.

Clinton was the featured speaker at a boisterous rally in Louisville, the third time a Clinton has campaigned for Grimes this year. The event came one day after the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee stopped running TV ads in Kentucky. And it was another chance for Grimes to associate herself with the Clintons, who are popular in Kentucky, instead of Obama, who is not.

Democratic state Auditor Adam Edelen called the rally a retirement party for McConnell, a 30-year veteran of the Senate. And state Sen. Gerald Neal led the crowd in chants of "Mitch doesn't care."
