Well.
We can look at this from glass half full, or glass empty.
The very fact our system can be used to bring an indictment against a Repliican for hiring Republicans and pursuing Republican policies when they have won a political election is ridiculous.
But, apparently we can count a Judge, still, that recognizes the fact.

Excellent news. I should call my FIL; he's in E-town, and has been involved in KY Republican politics for decades. FIL and MIL, actually.

Of course Kentucky Republicans have already abandoned Fletcher a long time ago -- the crook Stumbo brings a lawsuit and the fair-weather 'pubs scatter and hide.

Damage is done. S'Dumbo the 'Rat accomplished his goal of destroying Fletcher's reputation. It's up to the people of Kentucky to show that slimy, scum-sucking, troglodytic Attorney-General the door next year.

Quite a misleading article and headline. The charges were dropped as a sort of plea agreement with the AG - the judge did not just dismiss it outright. Fletcher had to "admit" his administration was corrupt and that the AG acted appropriately to uncover it, while the governor himself did not have to plead guilty to any crime. Not exactly an exoneration.

Do you mean to tell me a politician hired people who support his politics? That's not the way we do it in NJ. Our politicians hire whoever gives the best <censored>.

Probably too late to matter. Fletcher won over old-school KY dems who were disenchanted with years of scandal and near scandal. Even if the charges are bogus, the taint remains and will cost him those same votes in the next election.

This is why it is so important for the Bush Administration to seat as many traditional judges as possible. What Democrats can't accomplish in an honest election they try to do with corrupt judicial officials and judges

Do the Democrats have a strong candidate waiting to tackle Governor Fletcher in 2007?

Fletcher will be lucky if this story is on page A-52 of the NY Times.
