Gov. Fletcher wants your input.

I received an email from the Gov.'s office and I want to share it with you. The Gov. wants your input on how to spend the anticipated(?) "surplus" revenue. You can go to his website: Governor.ky.gov and check on the right hand side for links to express your opinion.

Meanwhile, on an unrelated matter, the SURVEYUSA poll shows the Gov.'s approval rating has slipped 4% points since last month. I am not really sure what may have caused it but I can, but will not, venture a guess. According to the poll, his approval rating is now at 31%, with 66% disapproving of his performance. His biggest disapprovals came from Blacks (a WHOPPING 81%), both sexes in the mid ages of 35-54, moderates (discounting Liberals (75%) because of differences in political philosophy, but noting Independents (at 64%) whose support the Gov. needs to win in November, and Republicans (52%) who will likely vote in the primary), who live in Louisville (75%) and Eastern (66%) and NorthCentral (65%) Kentucky. The Gov. fared best in Western Kentucky (with 56% disapproval rating). Click here to see how other Governors fared in their respective polls.

Rather than spending it, how about returning it to the taxpayers in the form of a rebate! After all it is our money!

Yea, but someone has a letter from Sen. Julian Carroll questioning whether there is a surplus. I do not know if this is partisanship on his part or what the deal is. If there is a surplus, then gathering input from the Kentuckians is a good idea, don't you?
