Ashley Judd Still Considering Senate Bid, Says Mother Naomi Judd

???????????????????????????????

In an interview with Larry King, country music singer Naomi Judd says her activist-actress daughter Ashley is still weighing whether to run against Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., in 2014.The elder Judd told King that her daughter "doesn't know" if she's going to jump in the race, but that Ashley is "very interested in changing the world." As King pointed out, however, the choice will have to come sooner than later given that Judd doesn't live in Kentucky.Watch:<p></p><p></p>Judd is by far the most popular choice among Kentucky Democrats and trails McConnell by only four points, according to the polls.
