Poor Jim Bunning raised an additional $125,000 and he thinks that’s reason for Democrats to fear him. Please, hold your laughter. [Fox 17]

UofL says the mandatory student meal plan is part of a 10-year agreement signed with Sodexo. Internal documents we’ve obtained suggest the university has a lot more explaining to do than this reporter has asked for. [C-J]

Hey, Darlene Fitzgerland Price and your attack dog husband, we thought you were taking this U.S. Senate race seriously? So much for those declarations that you’re fit for the job. Your campaign finance report is… wow. [FEC - Reports Index for Price]

The Governor was set to appear at a 5:00 P.M. press conference with Lexington Mayor Jim Newberry today. They plan to discuss the proposed replacement of Eastern State Hospital. No word on whether Newberry will be locked up at said hospital. Stay tuned. [Press Release]

Speaking of Jim Newberry, it appears that raw sewage follows him everywhere he goes. [H-L]

    Imagine that Pat Robertson had been a pageant judge and asked the same question and voted based on the answer. Hilton the douche probably set back gay rights a couple of years (never mind gay marriage), and he might want to avoid Miss California’s brothers or uncles or boy friends with his c word reference. BTW, the Huff Po writer’s name is Ruby-Sachs. Just sayin’.

    Fitzgerald received $200 from Toad Murphy! That’s huge!

    Page One is a breath of fresh air. Keep up the great work. With the low indicators of Kentucky, I am appreciative of West Virginia, because they generally rank lower. WV makes me feel better about my Bluegrass. And with the overwhelming amount of conservatism (KY voted for Hillary in the primaries, even though Math said it was over for her, and they were the first state to vote for McCain; it’s as if the voters in Kentucky are so deluded, they are willing to vote against their interests). Somebody has got to keep railing against the Establishment. Somebody with principles and values, about freedom, equality, fairness. Jake Payne for Governor. Keep plugging away Page One, keep plugging away. The future of Kentucky thanks you.
