Bill Clinton coming to Maysville Kentucky too?

With all the Clooney mania going on around town this weekend due to the premiere of George Clooney and Rene Zellwegger's new movie Leatherheads on Monday (stay tuned for updates), which already has RSVPs from Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear and former Miss America Heather French Henry, and no doubt some other VIP guests who will make a surprise appearance, I was nonetheless floored to learn that Bill Clinton will also be in town on Tuesday, campaigning for his wife Hillary! I'm confused. When the heck did we become so important? The total population of this town is less than 10,000. You can lay in the middle of Second Street on a Sunday morning for a good thirty minutes (at least) without fear of being run over. I'm not making that up either. You can totally do that. So I hope you can understand how surreal it is to see Channel 5 helicopters doing fly-bys like I did today. Too weird.

Clinton coming, that calls for a cigar : )
