Governor Patton, a politician who can lust......ooops.....I meant a politician you can trust.

Grope for me......I mean vote for me

[Theophilus]

Moon Face Mark Hebert is no conservative either. Thats probably why it took him weeks to spill the beans.

[hchutch]

If the lady on top of that pic is the lady the governor was boffing, then he must have been desperate.

[Paleo Conservative]

No, it was a male former porn star.

[185JHP]

Fornicating/adulterating is wrong. That said, this slut bringing up her business as a way to imply she was harassed? There's a word for females that engage in sex for money - it begins with a "w."

[FatherTorque]

And to think they all said that Gatewood would be an embarassment to Ky. if he got elected. ;)

Patton has always been pond scum, he just managed to keep it hid all these years. Of course he learned from the best though, Wally the weasel showed him the ropes. Wally just waited until after he was out of office to show his tail.

I sure don't miss Ky. politics, I'll just stay in Texas.

[KQQL]

here goes his senate Career...He wanted to be the next Rat senator from KY

[Lion Den Dan]

I predict she'll be dead within a week.

didn't the current Mrs. Paul Patton have a husband who expired unexpectedly and in an ugly manner just prior to her becoming Mrs. Patton?

[RonPaulLives]

Sonny Landham is the former porn star running in an already crowded Republican Primary for Governor of Kentucky in May 2003.

The parallels........with twists..........are uncanny.

Anyone here happen to remember what Juanita Broaddrick did for a living??

[flying Elvis]

Perhaps if she hadn't been screwing around on her husband she might only have had 63 -- instead of 163 -- actionable violations under which conditions the "poor old folks who had to move" evidently were living.

My two cents.... She thought since she was boffing the Guvnah she wouldn't have to worry about regulations and therefore ignored them. Once she ended it and was outside of his protection, he gave the inspectors a greenlight.
ORRRR.
She had been flaunting her connections and protection to the chargin of the inspectors who finally got even once she ended the relationship and was therefore unprotected.
Bureaucrats have long memories and will revenge themselves on someone who prevents them from doing their jobs under the mantle of political connectedness.
It has been my experience that people such as her are quick to invoke the names of their patrons when annoyed. Sounds like the bureacrats finally got a measure of revenge. Either way, two rats got caught. :) One was a Guvnah and the other was slut who was taking advantage of nursing home patients.

[BlueCat]

He'll get busted in Pike County by his own if he runs against Jim Bunning. Bank on it.

What do you mean?

[blackbag]

Thanks for the ping .. Shades of Clinton in Clinton.

[aristeides]

I think this story goes a long way toward explaining why Juanita Broaddrick did not report Clinton's rape.

[OldFriend]

Yes, bottoms rather than honor and dignity.

[martin gibson]

porn star who was running for the Republican nomination for governor in Kentucky?

This is bigtime Larry Flynt country...home of the (very nasty) 'hillbilly mob'.

[Coop]

here goes his senate Career...He wanted to be the next Rat senator from KY

I wonder if this opens the door for a GOP governor in 2003?

[MasonGal]

I just heard about it this morning on WHAS Radio news.

Quite frankly, I'm not surprised!!

[MasonGal]

That's the very first thing I thought of as soon as I heard it on WHAS this morning - could there actually be a GOP as governor next time around? Although - I live in southern IN - it's as if we are part of KY so much of the time - Louisville news stations, etc., - Paul Patton is just pathetic!!

[doug from upland]

I think Juanita was less worried about her business and more worried about her life. When the perpetrator is a RAT, it is much harder to go after him. If it is a pubbie, all the interest groups jump aboard and raise hell.
