The Fancy Farm picnic is a Kentucky political tradition. Been there, done that.
It's a no holds barred, old fashioned political talkin'. Every candidate from every party has to be there or he's dead to voters in western Kentucky. Democrats line up on one side, Republicans on the other side of the stage and heckling is encouraged.
But Sen Jim Bunning (R-KY) says this haven of bare-knuckled politics got a little too bare-knuckled for his wife.
He claims his opponent, Democratic State Senator Daniel Mongiardo's staff beat Mrs. Bunning black-and-blue. Sen Mongiardo calls the claim "outrageous."
Sen Bunning has also said Sen Mongiardo looks like one of Saddam Hussein's sons. He's since apologized for that.
