Yesterday Bruce Lunsford released his eight-point energy plan, which we told you about here. But he also said that Mitch McConnell thinks Kentucky voters are stupid– which is probably true. And then Mitch’s crew wet their pants and had to respond. [Mark Hebert]

Governor Steve Beshear went on another one of his fancy town hall meetings in Winchester. Ryan Alessi was there and has the skinny on what went down. Sales tax holidays, light rail in central Kentucky (HAHA) and more. [H-L]

Remember Jon Draud? The new education commissioner who spent a hundred million dollars of state money on a fancy car so he would feel safe or whatever? It’s now for sale on eBay! And Draud told Kentucky Public Radio that he plans to buy the $31,000 car himself. And we thought he needed all those vacation days and perks because he was in the poor house. [Pat Crowley]

What did senile John McCain do while Barack Obama was busy living it up with a fancy speech in Germany? Why, he went to a German restaurant in Columbus, Ohio to complain about Obama’s trip. How embarrassing is that? [The Page]

Greg Stumbo told reporters that Democratic House leadership under Jody Richards failed to help Steve Beshear enough. Oh snap, it’s on. Jody Richards denied everything. And then Greg started talking about running for a leadership spot. Who wants to take bets that Larry Clark is crying on the phone to Steve Henry as we speak (type)? [C-J]
