Mitch McConnell: “The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term President.”

When I first attended forty-two years ago, Fancy Farm was a pretty lonely place to be a Republican.

There’s no place I’d rather be on the first Saturday in August than with the good people of western Kentucky, feasting on pork and mutton.

So I hate that I’ll miss the fun this year, but I’m sending my best wishes to the St. Jerome community for a successful picnic.

Elaine and I are grateful for the many well wishes and support from friends, colleagues, and Kentuckians, and for the attentive care I've received from excellent doctors, nurses, therapists, and hospital staff.
