It's a gorgeous day driving along the 127 corridor between Lawrenceburg and Harrodsburg. It was absolutely wonderful. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for the Fletcher adminstration.

Tuesday, I attended the monthly PRSA luncheon. I saw a veteran of political combat in Kentucky, Tommy Preston. Mr. Preston commented to me he felt like Governor Fletch was an intelligent man. You don't get to be a doctor and a pilot without having a fair amount of intelligence. He's just lousy at picking his staff.

Fletcher picked almost all his people from his own organization, made up almost entirely of beltway insiders. The problem is we're way outside the beltway. All his people know how to do things up in Washington. This is a long way from Washington and they're finding this out too.

The war isn't over by a long shot either. With the "defense fund" being started, one wonders how deep this thing goes. Three people have been indicted by a grand jury and one has resigned. Sounds little more than political to me. Sounds like there's some legitimate questions here.

I'm anxious to see where this goes from here. What's the next move?
