Lexington Center
Heritage Hall

And don't bring any sharp objects or chairs.

Are you absolutely sure you can't get a group together? If you are in west KY, I can understand your angst. That's a long haul.

Ha! I rarely check my e-mail. If I go there right now, I'm sure I will have the same announcement you got. Oh well, I just wanted to post this in the KY area, in case others didn't know about it. Go KY for Bernie!!!

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - First Bernie, now Bill.

One day after it was announced that Democratic Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders will hold a rally in Louisville on Tuesday, it was announced that former President Bill Clinton will also be in the River City on Tuesday to campaign for his wife.

Bet you I know who will get the bigger crowd. Wait and see!

If they are following Bernie around, that's pretty desperate isn't it?

You see, Bernie isn't paying the Clinton camp any mind. He's going right on down the campaign trail, doing his thing, hardly ever mentioning her name.

The Clinton camp on the other hand, can't stand to be ignored.

the larger crowd. His event is outdoors and Clinton's is at a small venue. I bet Bill is remembering the days when he drew the large crowds. Not any more.

... but i just don't think Bill is doing to good, health-wise. He's looking thin and gaunt. They need to tell him to close his mouth, rather than let it gape open as he likes to do, or as he used to do and get away with it. Truly, I don't think he's well.

And photos!

I'm thinking Kentucky could go to Bernie. Hillary is not popular in Eastern KY coal country, and the main cities---Louisville, Lexington, Bowling Green--are all college towns......Bernie's strength.
