Democrats trolling for a few good candidates
By Ryan Alessi
Lexington Herald-Leader
Monday, Dec. 5, 2005


Many Kentucky Democrats have bristled for years over the party's lack of a strong crop of fresh, ambitious candidates who could rise through the elected ranks.

They typically rely on baseball analogies to describe this phenomenon, calling it a lack of a "deep bench," or a "weak farm system."

Perhaps that's never been as apparent as the upcoming 2006 election cycle -- although Democrats have pegged next year as a chance to turn the problem around.

1. If you are interested in finding and helping
good candidates, join Change for Kentucky. Their whole reason for being is the election of good candidates.
