Beshear meets with House Democratic leaders, 'generally' speaking

FRANKFORT -- On the morning after his broad state of the Commonwealth Address, Gov. Steve Beshear huddled with House Democratic leaders in his Capitol office for 35 minutes.

House Speaker Pro Tem Larry Clark, D-Louisville, said Beshear "just wanted to get us together and get a working relationship going."

Clark said specifics about a casino gambling proposal and Beshear's ethics legislation were not discussed.

Beshear, while walking out of the Capitol, wouldn't say what specific issues did come up. 

When asked what was the thrust of the meeting, he responded as he was getting into his SUV, "We just had (pause) a general conversation about (longer pause) the General Assembly."

Wow that Beshear sure is coy ... so much (pause) for transparent (longer pause) government.

ha ha ha ... add that to the list of meaningless campaign promises Beshear made.

I'm curious about Mr. SUV Steve and his energy plan --

Was he going to the residence and why did he not walk?
