You won’t want to miss the audio recordings of Daniel Mongiardo attacking Governor Steve Beshear, maligning the U.S. Senate and cursing. P.S. No one is disputing that what Mongiardo had to say is 100% the truth – it clearly is. But everyone is up in arms that he actually had the guts to say what he’s been feeling and thinking. Makes me like Lt. Dan a lot more. Lots lots lots more. Cause he’s finally being honest. [CLICK HERE]
The Mongiardo fallout is getting worse and worse with the national media jumping on board. [Politico]
From the Hotline Wake-Up Call Today: BREAKFAST FLAKE – “He’s screwing me every way possible. … I’m this close to saying f*#k it all, I don’t need this job” — KY LG/SEN candidate Dan Mongiardo (D), apparently a little frustrated with Gov. Steve Beshear (D) (“Bluegrass Politics”). Ruh ro. [Yeah, National]

I’m glad Daniel said what all of us “little people” have been saying at our local fundraisers.
I’ve attended several local office fundraisers and a good percentage said they gave to Beshears Governor campaign but no more for two reasons:
1. Beshear has forgotten everyone who helped get him elected
2. The way he has mistreated the guy who helped get him elected, Mongiardo.
Beshear is out there fundraising two years before he is up. He is taking money from local office holders and Mongiardo. He cares about nothing but getting re-elected, Kentucky hasn’t improved in any category:
We’re still dumb, obese, and poor as dirt.
No jobs coming into this state even though we have the 3rd lowest electricity rates in America.
No jobs coming even though we offer hundreds of million$ in tax incentives.
Billion$ of dollars available for green jobs and infrastructure but none coming into Kentucky.
His administration reminds me so much of Ernie Fletchers in that all the people he has hired care about nothing but improving their paycheck, not serving the people of Kentucky. The one difference is Ernie Fletcher is a good guy, Beshear is a piece of shit.
Bad luck you one termer piece of shit Governor (Who WILL go down at the least accomplished and worst Governor in Kentucky’s history)
Signed,
a $1,000 donor and fundraiser for you, Governor Beshear.

The first step in Steve Nunn’s insanity defense was that ludicrous order to the tombstone carver asking for his own death date of the next day.
The psych eval is about step 6, after driving to his parents’ grave, pretending to cut his wrists, shooting at the local cops, and getting his ex to tell the media all about how depressed and miserable he’s been since losing his job.
The groundwork’s all been laid. The psych eval is just decoration.

David Adams’ response was rather simpletonian, but then, that’s not entirely unexpected.
I mean, the SOB thing has long since died, but he trumps it up as “SOB-gate”, as if there was something criminal or corrupt about Conway having a mild jackass moment that people will be merely chuckling about in the near future.
Mr. Adams, please step back through the Looking Glass, into the reality-based world, mmm-k?

I’m working in St. Louis this week — gasoline is at about $2.07 [one station was $2.03] this week, and that’s next to the freeway! Louisville is still being gouged. When is the AG really going to do something about it?
