Light rail makes strange bedfellows

Met today with Tyler Allen et al at 8664 HQ. We jawed for a while about the efficacy of bringing a rail system across the Ohio from Indiana on or near the old L&I Bridge; one guy (who shall remain anonymous here) told me, much to my surprise, that Mitch McConnell actually supports the idea of a light rail system for Louisville, but that he's going to keep his mouth shut until after November, because our current 3rd District Rep, Anne Northup, opposes it.

I promised Tyler that I would muster a group of my old engineering professors and that we'd gang up on Mayor Jer. We're also going to do our best to recruit Young Democrats and Republicans alike to work with us; we all see 8664 as a real chance to bridge the divide with a worthwhile, bi-partisan project.
