Daniel Mongiardo is lying about not having heard from Jack Conway since the election. Daniel actually bailed on a meeting with Jack and the governor. He’s run quickly away every single time Jack has reached out to him. But they’ve spoken – it’s silly for him to act like they haven’t. Jack’s also met with Daniel’s people and so have I (independently of the Conway world, obviously). He’s very quickly going to turn into a has-been if he’s not careful. Let’s get real for a second: It’s no secret that Jack’s probably done a half-assed job with Mark Riddle’s terrible advice, but he has reached out to Daniel. [Bluegrass Politics]

Elena Kagan wanted to let trannies use the restroom at Harvard. Can you believe that? There is no way she is fit to be a judge if she wanted to let trannies use the restroom. [Mother Jones]
Woah, you need to listen to this Alvin Greene interview. It is scary to think that this guy doesn’t live in Kentucky. And alarming that he isn’t a robot. [Wonkette]
Mitch McConnell is awesome at blocking legislation that would benefit homeless veterans. [Daily Kos]

“Throwing Dirt on Our Veterans”
McConnell, like so many other GOP chickenhawks, cares nothing for homeless vets’ families. He loves to have Amurka wage war, stays away from real foxholes himself, and then breaks our so-called “sacred promise” to protect vets who serve their country. Many of them are poor–unlike Mitch and his Empress Elaine.

Make no mistake about it, this “reconciliation” issue between Conway and Mongiardo is, in Bidenspeak, a pretty big fucking deal. I’m also amazed at the number of very high dollar national Dem consultants Conway is paying. Mandy Grunwald???? That woman wears very expensive shoes, Jack.

Mandy’s probably worth the money.
Riddle? I’m not certain. Primarily because he seems to tell Jack solely what he wants to hear, gives him bad advice (reference: barely scraping by in the primary) , alienates everybody by playing nasty and causes lots of drama with folks like Clinton, groups like the DSCC and other power brokers.

Well, Hillary probably wouldn’t have carried Kentucky without Mandy :-) Breaking News: The Red River Gorge Biting Bear has been captured. He was at Disney World. Please bear in mind, hikers, Kentucky bears HATE paparrazi.
