The problem with this Governor is that he has made a deal with the last Governor (Patton)--leaving all of Patton's people in key positions.

The questions are:

1. Why keep Jerry Johnson (a Patton hack) on board to help decide board and commission appointments?

2. Why hire Grady Stumbo's daughter as the number 2 or number 3 person at the Department of Local Government. When she calls you, she states she is calling from the Governor's office?

3. Why does Fletcher ignore rank-and-file Republicans, choosing instead to reward 'friendly Democrats' loyal to Paul Patton, a the direction of power brokers in Eastern Kentucky loyal to Patton and a sell-out to the GOP?

Clearly, Fletcher lacks no political or moral compass whatsoever. He is a sell-out elitist who sacrifices the hard-work of the GOP faithful throughout Kentucky.

I'm disgusted by this, and await the chance to vote him out in 2007. What good was it to vote for a change when the Patton-Lawson corruption machine continues full steam ahead.

We wanted a new track, but all we did was change conductors.

Strong words BlackJack (not that I necessarily disagree). Something tells me you either work in Frankfort are are pretty damn well connected to know these things.
