Jerry Abramson, naturally, avoided reacting too extremely to Brad Cummings’ scathing indictment yesterday. He’s particularly adept at obfuscation and his reaction yesterday was testament to that fact. [Fat Lip]

Your Monday Dept of Regular Political Hypocrisy
June 29th, 2009 · 9 Comments
In case you missed it, Daniel Mongiardo sided with king coal and the Republican Party - not the Democratic Party - on cap and trade. Both John Yarmuth and known pussyfooter and wannabe Republican Ben Chandler voted in support of the legislation. [Barefoot & Progressive]
That Barack Obama will hold a national town hall […]

It’s a Hot & Humid Wednesday of Drama & More
June 24th, 2009 · 6 Comments
The House & Senate agreed on several new “incentives” in Frankfort. Active-duty military members are now tax-exempt (state), folks trading in a vehicle for a different vehicle only pay sales tax on the difference of value in the two vehicles (wtf?), $5,000 credit for people who buy newly built homes. Not just any […]

Aww, how sweet! Yet another anonymous Twitter account built to attack us. And the only folks to mention it? The Hillbilly Report guys. Imagine that. [Hillbilly Report & Fake Jacob Payne]
P.S. Our favorite part of the faux Twitter account is this: “Greg’s learning the hard way what Steve, Heather, […]

NGP Made a Killing From Kentucky Campaigns
April 27th, 2009 · No Comments
About a month ago we brought a rather interesting campaign finance issue to your attention. It seems NGP, a national software vendor for Democratic campaigns, could have betrayed thousands of Democrats. The company promotes itself as only working with Democrats and only supporting Democratic interests. But it turns out that couldn’t be […]

Tuesday Morning of Absolutely Nothing Has Changed

Greg Stumbo and David Williams are signaling that they’re ready to further cut state retirement benefits. Wait. We thought everything was puppies & rainbows with the budget? [Stephenie Steitzer]
Are Republicans really targeting Ben Chandler with robo-calls? [The Hill]
No, David Adams, Jack Conway isn’t just not jumping on the press release bandwagon. […]

Tuesday Dept of Getting Interesting Already
April 14th, 2009 · 2 Comments
Wasn’t that fun last night? Losing power in a mere thunderstorm is awesome. Louisville must be the most technologically advanced city on the planet.
We’ve got all the video from Jack Conway’s press conference/candidacy announcement last night. His speech along with endorsements from Greg Stumbo, Crit Luallen, Ben Chandler and John Yarmuth. […]

Jack Conway’s Formal Campaign Kick-Off
April 13th, 2009 · 16 Comments
We stopped by the Muhammad Ali Center early this evening for Jack Conway’s official U.S. Senate campaign kick-off event. Rather than liveblog things, we decided to break out the video camera for some shaky footage (what a day not to have a tripod) of everything.
Everyone was there. Organized labor, Sheriff, old Patton Administration […]

Oh Snap Monday! Big Conway News Today
April 13th, 2009 · 13 Comments
Have you heard the spin from the homophobic campaign of Daniel Mongiardo? Kim Geveden and his cohorts are labeling Jack Conway as the anti-christ for refusing to discriminate against anybody. They’re saying he’s too much of a city boy. Too inexperienced (despite his decade and a half in public service). The […]

Dr. Dan Releases His $$ Numbers
April 6th, 2009 · No Comments
We know that Jake would have something snarky to say about Daniel Mongiardo’s fund-raising numbers, but since he’s on a flight back to Kentucky from California, we’ll just report the news from the Mongiardo camp.
Today the Lt. Governor announced that he’d raised $420,000 in the six weeks since he announced his candidacy, ample enough for […]
