537. Lazy Tuesday Entry for Metro Club Wednesday

The monthly meeting of the Metro Democratic Club is tomorrow, Wednesday, at 6:30 pm. The guest speaker will be Kyle Cox, Executive Director of the Kentucky Democratic Party. I had a great deal of problems with the previous ED of the KDP. I haven't had any with Mr. Cox, so far. Of course, I've never met him.

Here is the email blast from the club:

Louisville, Kentucky, United States
Never married, liberal Democrat, born in 1960, opinionated but generally pleasant, member of the Episcopal Church. Graduate of Prestonia Elementary, Durrett High, and Spalding University; the first two now-closed Jefferson County Public Schools, the latter a very small liberal arts college in downtown Louisville affiliated with the Roman Catholic Sisters of Charity of Nazareth. My vocation and avocation is politics. My favorite pastime is driving the backroads of Kentucky and southern Indiana, visiting small towns, political hangouts, courthouses, churches, and cemeteries. You are welcome to ride with me sometime.
