Listening to the radio this morning I learned that the Governor-Elect of Kentucky is a Tea-partying Conservative Matt Blevin. What that will eventually mean, I have no idea. He's already on record supporting that discriminatory Kim Davis and proclaimed a number of issues dear to Conservative hearts. The Courier-Journal reported that groups like The the Family Foundation of Kentucky is thrilled. Martin Cothran, their senior policy advisor is quoted as saying:
“It’s going to be a
big change in policy in this state, I think … to have the governor’s
office in the hands of somebody who really wants to make some
conservative change is heartening.”
“We’ve elected a
governor who has expressed strong support for religious freedom, who is
also in favor of charter schools. So we are hopeful some of the policy
statements he made during the campaign are realized.”
However since the Legislature is controlled by Democrats, strategist Danny Briscoe predicts:
“Every
bill that comes up, every critical issue that comes up, Republicans
will say ‘how is it going to affect our chances in November,’ and the
Democrats will say the same thing, which I think means we probably won’t
get a lot done,”
I wonder how long it will be before kennie ham posts about it and how it will impact his Ark Park? Are things bleaker for the people of Kentucky? I hope not, I really do!
