2/24/06: Fletcher revamps the state school board; Republicans will dominate. Homeland security—a $200 million germ lab in Somerset? Maybe. And the flap over Arabs and the ports—the same Arabs who have invested millions in Kentucky horses. Should the state take over local jails? A Crit Luallen proposal. (#3217)

3/3/06: The governor’s budget is whacked in the legislature. Concentrating on God and gays, Senate Republicans lose their attempt to limit the courts—but only by a whisker.

Former President Bill Clinton stumps in Louisville, where John Yarmuth has drawn ahead of incumbent Anne Northup. Northup breaks with President Bush and says Rumsfeld should be fired.
