Hi all,
In this post I'm taking off my Democracy For America / Change for Kentucky organizer hat and donning my Michael J Kelley for Congress Treasurer hat.
The good doctor was recently on Pat Crowley's political TV show, "On the Record." I slapped the footage on YouTube (with Pat's permission) so voters can get a feel for Michael. (I like Michael, but I'm required to since he is my brother-in-law.) Anyway, I was impressed with how Michael did. This was his first time on TV and I was expecting it to be very hard for me to watch (lots of pressure!) But he made me proud! The voters of KY-04 will have a clear and contrasting choice in November. Let me know what YOU think... (Parts 2 and 3 below the fold.)

Part 3-4
The campaign website is at:
http://www.kelley08.com/
I'm updating the site some this weekend - adding video, changing some navigation, etc. I know it is light on issues but the You Tube videos and our radio interview in the audio section pretty much lay out how his views contrast with Davis. And I'm working to add some issues PDFs for activists who "just gotta have 'em."
The campaign gear store is at:
http://www.cafepress.com/...
By the way, we don't make any money on the gear store. I just set that up for activists who were demanding gear. So don't feel compelled to buy gear unless you REALLY just love gear. We aren't funded enough to give it away, so if you want a bumper sticker or a T-shirt, now you can get one at the gear site.
Our future blogging plans: I think Michael will be doing an interview at BluegrassRoots in the near future, and I'll try to corral him for some liveblogging over here at DailyKOS. (I'll be doing the typing, because he is SLOW on a keyboard. I mean, it is shameful. Apparently doctors don't do much typing in their day job and it shows. But I'll just be the keyboarder and all the words will be his.)
Thanks for your time!
Mike Bailey
